For those interested in helping out, and at least being aware of the
unique opportunity we have in Rhode Island.
Bill Hunt ran as a Libertarian for State Representative in 2018
receiving 35.3% of the vote against a Progressive Democrat that
immediately turned around and resigned after winning triggering a
special election at the beginning of 2019.
In 2018, Bill had the endorsement's of the local Republican Town
Committees in the district AND The Incumbent Democrat who wasn't in the
race.
Bill has declared his intent to run in the special election as a
Libertarian, and LPRI is rallying around him, and building a fully
staffed campaign team to make it happen this time. The Primary will be
on February 5th (To weed down the democrat field) and the General
Election will be on March 5th. Right now, there is no Republican in the
race, and No republican candidate even expressing interest, and the
local Republican Committees in the district have already expressed
support for Bill Hunt.
This is a huge race for LPRI, as it is the only election happening at
the time in the entire state, and they've already begun receiving media
coverage and acknowledgement for involvement.
With our current budget woes, I'm not going to ask the LNC to contribute
party funds to Help the campaign, but I AM going to ask every member of
the LNC to help pitch in when possible when it comes time to phone bank,
fundraise, and help LPRI Elect a Libertarian State Rep.
Bill still has his Campaign site and infrastructure in place from the
2018 run to transition to this special election, and can be viewed at
https://hopewithhunt.com/ and his facebook is

If anyone wants to communicate with Bill's Campaign Manager, Mike
Rinaldi, I would be happy to introduce and set that up. Mike also serves
as Vice Chair of LPRI.
