Barr Wins Libertarian Nomination
Former Rep. Bob Barr won the Libertarian Party’s Presidential nomination at the party’s convention in Denver Sunday
afternoon. He defeated long-time party activist Mary Ruwart, 54 to 46 percent, on the sixth ballot.
Fourteen candidates ran for the nomination. Former Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Mike Gravel was defeated in the fourth round.
Ruwart, a scientist and consultant from Texas, is a frequent Libertarian candidate, and challenged Republican Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison in 2002. She campaigned earlier this year for Ron Paul.
“I’m sure will we emerge here with the strongest ticket in the history of the Libertarian Party,” Barr said in his victory speech. Click here to read more from Denver about Bob Barr and the Libertarian Party.
