PA: Editorial Welcomes Libertarian Candidate to Congressional Special Election Race

Excerpt from an editorial at the Tribune Democrat:

Welcome to the race, Demo Agoris.  As you read here Sunday, Demo Agoris – a Libertarian Party candidate – will be on the ballot for the special election May 18 in the 12th Congressional District. He will go up against Republican Tim Burns and Democrat Mark Critz to see who will complete the late John Murtha’s term through year’s end.

Agoris would seem to be a longshot to beat out both of the traditional party candidates.  However, we hope his presence in the race allows for more issues to be discussed and additional viewpoints to be considered. Actually, Agoris has been a candidate for the seat for some time, but was recently recognized by the Pennsylvania Department of State and will have his name on the ballot – right along with Burns and Critz.  Agoris told reporter Mike Faher that he hopes to “bring to light the agenda of the Libertarian Party and how the left and right agenda is destroying America and selling out America to foreign investors.”  We welcome the dialogue.
