[Lnc-business] Email Ballot 2017-10: Donation to the Mark Wicks campaign

Wed May 10 14:17:08 EDT 2017

Thank you, Joshua. Your quote of Larry's 80/20 rule is spot on. It is hard
to find a Libertarian that you do not agree with 80% of the time.

My Yes vote was influenced by astute input from Nick and Caryn Ann and
others from disparate LP perspectives. Erin Adams from Oklahoma says that
they have 100 activists available to man phone banks. Jared Hall from
Indianapolis (Feldman Foundation) confirms Erin's information and says that
part of the funds will be used for a voter list that covers all of Montana.

Obviously, we need to pick and choose which candidates we support
financially. Mark Wicks is the right candidate to support for the
persuasive reasons given by Nick, Caryn Ann, Joshua, Erin and Jared.

Thoughts?
