Carruth Is
Libertarian Speaker
Michael Carruth, recently
elected Landrum town
councilman, will speak on "Local
Campaigning” at a public
meeting of the South Carolina
Libertarians Sunday, January 31
at the Richland County Public
Library at 2 p.m.
Libertarians will also discuss
their plans for holding precinct
meetings on February 6. “We're
hoping for good weather;” said
chairman Tom Waldenfels of
Landrum; "two years ago we
picked the day of the biggest
snow of the year, and were only
able to organize in 11 counties.
We'd like to double that, at least,
this year." Waldenfels added that
he knew that the Libertarians
would not be able to organize in
every county this year, adding,
"there are some counties in
which the Republicans even have
trouble in organizing.”
Waldenfels declined to
speculate on how many
candidates the Libertarians
would have this year, saying, “A
lot of our people still don’t know
what Congressional district
they’re going to be in, or what
seat in the General Assembly
they'll be eligible to run for."
Libertarians will be holding
county conventions in the
counties where they organize
some or all of the precincts on
March 6, and the state convention
in Columbia in April. Candidates
will be nominated at these
conventions. — Reporter
