Getting third parties off the ground is next to impossible, but people do hear the points you are making. Unfortunately, a lot of people who would be more inclined to be Libertarian have heard that the party is for legalizing drugs, and that turns people off. I am sure that is just a small aspect of the platform, but that seems to stick with people for some reason. You and Mark R. present yourselves very well. Professional people like you two need to keep showing up at debates to be heard. Remember, Rome wasn't created in a day. You're doing the right thing...keep on keeping on!<BR/><BR/>-RachelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5366199.post-72731280767387763552008-05-08T18:26:00.000-05:002008-05-08T18:26:00.000-05:00Mike,Beth and I were in the same position as Mark....Mike,<BR/><BR/>Beth and I were in the same position as Mark. We asked for SB ballots, the poll worker looked like we farted, but a helpful inspector grabbed our ballots so we could be on our happy way.Chris Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10343530497265931120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5366199.post-15094398113749004632008-05-08T18:19:00.000-05:002008-05-08T18:19:00.000-05:00My precinct had school board elections.

I asked for a school board ballot only - the poll worker had a worried look on her face and clearly didn't know what to do. She did recover and asked the inspector if this was OK. He was very knowledgeable and brought over the school board only ballots. I cast my votes for school board and did not sully my reputation by taking an old party ballot in their state subsidized candidate selection event.Mark W.
