Missouri Libertarian has strong showing in special election

Libertarian Patty Tweedle received 22% of the vote in yesterday’s special election for Missouri State Representative (District 62). Tweedle’s only opponent was a Republican.

Ballot Access News editor Richard Winger points out that Tweedle had almost as much support as the 2008 Democratic Party candidate for that office. In 2008, the Democrat received 27% of the vote.

The Libertarian Party congratulates Patty Tweedle on her strong showing.
