Dear Friend of Liberty,
First I want to thank everyone who supported our 24-hour HURRICANE EARTHQUAKE L.P. (H.E.L.P.) Telethon here at the national Libertarian Party Headquarters in Washington, D.C.
From the start of the announcement Friday through noon on Sunday, we received $365 by phone and $2,797.76 online.
The hurricane caused significant damage in some places as well as loss of life, and we hope for a speedy recovery for those dealing with the aftermath. I was pleased that the hurricane did not cause more damage that it did.
Here in Washington, D.C., we did not lose power. Click here to see my attempt to deliver a Geraldo Rivera/Anderson Cooper-style 1:30 AM hurricane report.

A sampling of feedback from the event:
- "I LOVED the hurricane telethon idea. Happy to donate today. We need more FUN ideas like this one, IMO."
- "I called in last night and had a terrific conversation with Wes!"
- "Makes the LP look like fools."

Regarding the 2012 presidential race, a new Reason Foundation poll finds opportunity for a third party candidate.
Along those lines, here's a list of 2012 Libertarian Party candidates for president.
