Barr Wins Texas!

Published by eclecticbird at 10:55 pm under Libertarian Edit This

All those folks that said a Libertarian couldn’t win were WRONG!  Of course he is winning by default, because none of the other candidates submitted their paperwork by the deadline.  How funny is that??  Texas has 32 electoral votes and they all belong to Barr.  Wow…sounds like he might be worth voting for in some of the other states, now…huh?  I know, I know…it’s a technicality and the Red and Blue parties will flip their collective lids and get their candidates’ name on the list I’m sure.

Why am I sure?  Well as for the Democrats I have two words….Michigan Florida.  If they can’t abide by their own self imposed rules there is no way on this green and blue ball that they are going to stand by because of someone elses rules.  Puhlease.  As for the Republicans….after the Dems make a fuss they will soon follow suit b/c they won’t want to be left out of all the fun.

Actually kind of ticks me off….as I said about the Michigan and Florida fiasco, rules are rules….and people who want to RULE our country should at least be able to abide by them.

Idealistic of me, I know.

Here is the blog for Barr that has the story and here is the Texas website that shows Barr winning.

Anyone want to take bets on how long it will take the two big boys to get their respective names on the ballot?
