Regional Representative
Justin O'Donnell
What experience and accomplishments do you have in the Libertarian Party? Include internal party positions as well as positions on LP campaigns for public office.
Incumbent Region 8 Rep, Founded 2 regional affiliates, Active lobbyist in the NH State House, and Candidate for US congress.
I am a sales manager and trainer, my whole career has been built on teaching people how to craft a message to reach people who aren't listening.
forget what we do good, what we do poorly is support our candidates, and that needs to be an ultimate focus of a political party that exists to get candidates get elected.
I would like to see a more robust candidate support program developed, building on the documented experiences of our higher profile candidates running in 2018, as well as looking into the possibilities of active state level lobbying organizations with Libertarian missions that we could support.
While I have a vote in matters presented to the LNC, my ultimate responsibility is to the state chairs of my region, and to ensure that my votes reflect their needs and wishes for the party.
The national party has a captive audience, and access to a much larger fundraising pool than many of our candidates. while it is impractical to freely share that access with ALL candidates, more should be done to empower our candidates to raise funds, and to encourage our donors to support them.
