Watch this conversation between three Libertarian candidates for the legislative candidates as they talk the two topics now dominating the election, COVID-19 pandemic and criminal justice reform.

When 2020 began, neither of these issues was on any political pundit’s radar. Now they seem to be all any of them talk about.

Sadly, as with many issues, it is not reasoned, rational debate. Instead, political discourse has degenerated into name-calling and tribal warfare between “good” and “evil.”

Wearing – or not wearing – a mask has become both a fashion statement and a political statement.

Libertarians Travis Groo (NC Senate 17), Bruce Basson (NC House 36), and Dee Watson (NC House 49) have a different view.
