Hawaii Candidate Filing Closes; Five Parties Will Have Nominees — 4 Comments

  1. “Free Energy Party” sounded a bit strange to me (did some perpetual-motion-machine crank start a political party?)

    Upon Googling, their platform seems to consist of “just like the Libertarians, only also, use de-commissioned nuclear submarines to provide electricity for ‘free’.”

    (Iiiiinteresting idea, I suppose. But somehow I don’t think the Navy or the NRC are going to go for it. And I suppose “free” isn’t counting maintenance, personnel, security, just infrastructure (which is an admittedly large portion of a nuclear power system’s cost, compared to the alternatives.))
