On July 7, 2019, Rick Knox died at the age of 70. He had been national chairman of the Prohibition Party since 2015, and lived in Blairsville, Georgia. Under his chairmanship, the party gained qualified status in Mississippi in time to appear on the 2016 ballot, the first the party had received votes in Mississippi since 1896. Also under his chairmanship, the party established social media for itself. Knox had a background as a political consultant, and many years earlier had been active in the American Independent Party when it was a nationally-organized party. Thanks to Paul Frankel for this news.
Bummer! The number of Prohibitionists just decreased by what… 10%?
That’s really too bad – he was an interesting guy … after a few drinks, I enjoyed reading his stuff. TPP will have a very hard time finding someone who has half of Knox’ political knowledge. He wasn’t a genius, but he was someone who could have helped that party make some steps forward.
Just ran across this now… so sad. May he Rest In Peace.
On behalf of the Ashgabat Penis Party, I offer the deepest of condolences to Knox.
