  7. It just got a little tougher for the Libertarian Party of Indiana to get the 2% we need to keep our ballot status in that Secretary of State race https://www.lauriforliberty.com/events. Hey, don’t get me wrong, we’re all pluralists here. But it would be especially bad to lose our ballot status in Indiana. It’s been a jewel in our ballot access crown for three decades. Mr. Rainwater’s 11.4% for Governor in 2020 was built on the shoulders of giants from the 1990’s like Dr. Barbara Bourland, Steve Dillon, and Larry Lyles.

  8. While I’m not remotely a Libertarian, I did vote for Rainwater in 2024, along with, in IN-03, Pepper Snyder back in 2016.

    Hopefully the Libertarians have enough of a voting base that a new option on the ballot won’t deeply negate their totals. They seem a pretty put-together state chapter.
