The Des Moines Register has a brief profile of Libertarian state representative candidate Russ Gibson. The customer service representative says he is running because “I am dissatisfied with the way that government continues to encroach into every aspect of our lives. I want to get the government out of our wallets so that it stops ruining our economy, and out of our personal lives as much as possible. My goal is to return power to the people, and let us decide how to spend our money and how to run our own lives.â€
