Libertarian Allen Buckley said Wednesday he will run on the third-party ticket against Isakson next year. He joins Republican Derrick Grayson, a MARTA engineer and minister who garnered 1 percent of the vote in the 2014 Senate primary.
…
Buckley, an attorney and accountant in metro Atlanta, ran as a Libertarian in the 2008 race between Republican Saxby Chambliss and Democrat Jim Martin, and his 128,000 or so votes helped force the race into a runoff that Chambliss eventually won. He also lost bids for the U.S. Senate in 2004 and lieutenant governor in 2006.
Buckley said this time around he thinks he can “possibly” win the election on a campaign of cutting the size of federal government and reining in programs.
“My campaign will emphasize the real issues and provide solutions to the significant problems our country faces, including excessive debt, entitlements, regulation and foreign intervention,” Buckley said. “I do not believe any opponent I will face shall do the same.”
Any relation to John Buckley? WVA/VA Libertarian?
