Help select the Libertarian Party's presidential candidates in Anaheim, California. The National Libertarian Convention will be held from June 30 to July 4. If you are a LP member in good standing and want to attend, you should contact Caryn Cohen to express your interest in becoming a delegate. Travel discounts are available, but you are responsible for making (and paying for) your own arrangements.

A good overview of the various people seeking the Libertarian presidential nomination is at http://www.lobbyforme.com/p1/lp.htm. Two of them, plus Ken Krawchuk (who is seeking the vice-presidential nomination) attended the 2000 New York Libertarian Party convention.

Many people are already signed up to represent us in California. You can give them some feedback before they head out there by using this online form. It's not really a vote, but your opinions will be considered.
