LP Vice Chair Arvin Vohra on Reason TV
Arvin Vohra, vice chair of the Libertarian National
Committee and candidate for congress in Maryland's 4th district, was
interviewed by Nick Gillespie on Reason TV.
"When you give [Democrats and Republicans] your vote, you're telling them 'Go ahead, keep on doing what you're doing,'" Vohra explained. "And when you vote for the Libertarian candidate you are telling them, in no uncertain terms, 'You do not have either my approval or my permission to grow or sustain big government. Shrink it now.'"

Gigi Bowman on the ballot in NY
Gigi Bowman
Marcellino and several of his staffers sought to have their sole opponent on the ballot — Libertarain Gigi Bowman — removed from the ballot by filing a challenge to her qualifying petition. The 5th Senate district covers portions of Long Island's north shore in Suffolk and Nassau Counties.
On Sept. 29, the Nassau Supreme Court denied Bowman's motion to dismiss for late service, and granted her motion to transfer the case to Albany County. On Friday, Oct. 24, the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Third Department, reversed that denial and ruled in favor of Bowman (Wilson et al. v. Bowman, 3rd Dept. Index No. 519828).
Lucas
Overby endorsed by former Democrat-backed challenger
Lucas Overby, the Florida Libertarian Party candidate for the U.S. House 13th congressional district in next week's general election, has been endorsed by the former independent challenger, Eduardo Jany.
"I'm both honored and humbled to accept Eduardo Jany's endorsement," Overby said. "It stands as proof that we share the same vision; reaching across party lines in support of the working families of our district. Serving our constituents will remain my highest priority, and I look forward to working with those who share this goal."

LP with
coalition presses for real NSA reform
The
Hill, Washington D.C.'s newspaper of record that focuses exclusively on
politics, cited the Libertarian Party as one of the organizations in
a pro–Fourth Amendment coalition that is lobbying to end government mass
surveillance:
Dozens of civil liberties groups are calling on Congress not to stop short in reforming the National Security Agency.
The Bill of Rights Defense Committee led other organizations in a letter on Tuesday warning Congress against stopping with the USA Freedom Act, a bill currently in the Senate that would end the NSA's bulk collection of Americans' phone records.
Lawmakers should pass that bill 'and then immediately turn your attention to more meaningful and comprehensive reform of the [NSA's] overreaching and unconstitutional surveillance practices,' the groups wrote.
