State Convention Scheduled

The Libertarian Party of Alabama State Convention will be held April 19th and 20th in Birmingham, at the BJCC. We've already got a great start on the speaker line-up, including former Congressman Bob Barr, Stuart Carter of Free the Hops, former LP gubernatorial candidate Loretta Nall, Alabama House Rep. Cam Ward, and former Alabama Ron Paul Field Director Shana Kluck as speakers. UPDATE: Loretta Nall will be unable to attend.  In her place, Dan Roberts of DailyDixie.com will be speaking.

We are trying to keep the cost of this convention as low as humanly possible while providing quality speakers in a quality auditorium. Thanks to the hard work of our convention committee, we've managed to get the price down to $25 for both days.
