Fellow Libertarians,
After paying attention to the State Board for the past year, I have decided to seek the position of the VP of Membership. As a Deputy VP of Political Affairs, I have witnessed opposition to the promotion of our candidates and the Party. I can no longer stand on the sidelines. I want to see our Party run more NJLP platform-aligned candidates (especially on a local level), not less, and I want to see them win, regardless of their race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. I want to help grow the Party on a statewide level, and I have developed a plan to do so.
If elected as the VP of Membership, I plan to work with others to use my research in data analytics to help increase both the membership and the visibility of the Party. I have witnessed a drop in Party membership in the last 3 years. The image of the Party became one engaged in cultural wars, and not one that was coming up with proposals to improve the lives of the people in New Jersey. As a result, the membership has dropped, and those remaining, have stopped donating money to the Party. The New Jersey Libertarian Party includes members who have not signed up with any caucus. If elected, I want to represent the entire Party, not any particular caucus. If elected, I would never vote a certain way, just because someone else is voting that way. If chosen to represent the Party, I promise to display the same type of independence as I've displayed in 2024, when I backed four different presidential candidates on separate occasions. I will propose and back any proposal that would help increase Party visibility and membership by standing up for our principles and our platform.
