Libertarian Brad Ploeger begins his Petition Drive for State House District 59

More News Kids,

Libertarian Brad Ploeger is conducting a petition drive to qualify for the ballot in State House District 59 in southeast Atlanta.

From the Georgia LP Website:

The Libertarian Party of Atlanta is gearing up to support the Libertarian Party's candidates in this year's election. If you have never been involved in campaigns before now; this is a great way to gain experience! Campaigns require the support of volunteers like you to survive and win in November.

Brad is running to be the first Libertarian elected to the Georgia General Assembly. The 59th district includes portions of Grant Park, Midtown, Lakewood and Old Fourth Ward. Because he is not running for a statewide office where the Libertarian Party already has access to the ballot, Brad’s campaign needs 1,600 voters to sign ballot access petitions in order to earn a place on the ballot in November. Help Brad become a voice for our Libertarian beliefs under the Gold Dome.
