On October 19, the Maryland Libertarian Party held its state convention and nominated David Lashar for Governor. He is the former head of Information Technology for the Maryland Department of Health. See this story.
The Maryland Libertarian Party is ballot-qualified, because it successfully petitioned in 2020, and in Maryland, a party petition puts the party on the ballot for two elections. And even if that weren’t true, it would also be on in 2022 because it polled over 1% for president in 2020. If the party polls over 1% for Governor in 2022, then it will automatically be on in 2024.
The Green Party is also ballot-qualified in Maryland because it also petitioned successfully in 2020.
Health czars are usually eager to trample on individual liberty — witness our recent mandates to stay at home, mask up, and get a shot. But, then again, those mandates haven’t seemed to bother the vast majority of “Libertarians.”
That’s because that party is actually run by commie moles who have totally taken it over. Meanwhile the rhinos are being purged from the GOP, making it an ever more welcome home for real libertarians who are no longer at home in the Lenintarian party.
