The Boston Globe of August 15 has this letter to the editor, written by Evan Falchuk, founder of the United Independent Party. The letter criticizes long-time Massachusetts Secretary of State Bill Galvin for his hostility to minor parties. The letter does not mention Galvin’s actions in 2008, when his office first told the Libertarian Party that it could use stand-ins for president and vice-president, but later reversed itself and denied substitution, even though it had been permitted numerous times in the past.
