[Lnc-business] Re-register month results

[Ken Moellman]

I have been tracking LPKY registrations for years. As such, I have also
used the historic data to predict growth. These predictions was assuming
status quo, steady as she goes. It showed a spike after Rand Paul would
lose the Repub primary (which he did, and the spike began). 

But I am so very pleased to report a huge spike in the numbers over the
past 8 weeks. 
* On 9/15, the KY SoS reported 5861 Libertarians, where the trend had
predicted we'd only be at 5655. 
* On 10/19, the KY SoS is reporting 7456 Libertarians, where the trend
had previously only predicted 5844. That's a HUGE jump for us. 

To put this jump in context, we were supposed to hit 7400+ in December
2017. We're literally 14 months ahead of schedule. The trendline now
says we're slated to be over 9000 registered Ls by December 2017. 

I would attribute this to a number of factors, but one thing for sure is
the "re-register month" promotion. My own wife took advantage of this
promotion. She said it was easy and with it popping up regularly it was
right there when she was ready to do it. 

I thought you would all like to know this, and maybe you could share
some data from other states that do registration by party to compare
these results...
