From Richard Winger at Ballot Access News:
The blog of the Birmingham News, Alabama’s biggest newspaper, published an appeal by the Constitution Party for a candidate to step forward to run in an upcoming special legislative election.
From the article cited:
In 2014, 59% of Alabamians did not vote in the general election. This was the lowest turnout reported by the secretary of state in several decades. It is obvious that the national trend of electors being dissatisfied with their elected officials has reached Alabama. Recent polls conducted by Gallup, stated a historic 60% of citizens now favor a third party. The percentage of those not voting in the general election and those calling for a third party now out number those who voted for both the democrats and republicans.
The Alabama Constitution Party is seeking a candidate who will stand up to the establishments bullying tactics, the governors out of control tax proposals, and make a stand for our unalienable rights. We need a candidate who truly understands the purpose for government and not just another spender of our tax dollars.
