At least six minor party legislative candidates were elected on November 4. The Progressive Party of Vermont re-elected David Zuckerman, Sandy Haas, Susan Davis, and Sarah Edwards. Also it elected a new member, Mollie Burke.
In Arkansas, Green Party nominee Richard Carroll was elected. He was the only candidate listed on the ballot, but two Democratic write-in candidates ran against him. However, Carroll received 83.1% of the total vote cast.
So did the VPP lose two seats?
yes
Also, one independent was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly.
There are probably some other independents elected to state legislatures besides the one in Wisconsin. I would be surprised if there aren’t any in Vermont, Massachusetts, and maybe other states.
4 Free-staters were elected in NH, Republicans and Democrats. =)
Good news for the Greens, but sad to hear about the Progressive Party’s losses. I hope they will recover.
Either you’re a Republican/Democrat or you’re something else, you can’t be both Trent. Your friends should come out of the closet and register Libertarian already.
