Local Libertarian Party members recently attended the National Convention in Reno, Nev., over the Memorial Day weekend.
Delegates elected national officers, heard rallying speakers and attended a full day of educational campaign training to better spread the message of liberty and elect candidates, according to a news release provided by the local Libertarian Party.
Elected were National Chair Angela McArdle, Vice Chair Joshua Smith, Treasurer Todd Hagopian and Secretary Caryn Ann Harlos.
To represent Region Three (Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Kentucky), Dustin Nanna was re-elected as the representative with Connor Nepomuceno as the alternate.
