- Ingham County Gun and Knife Show by Mike Brinkman
OPH Opportunity:
WE NEED YOUR HELP! The Libertarian Party of
Mid-Michigan will be conducting an Operation Politically
Homeless Booth at the September 24-26 Gun and Knife Show at
the Ingham County Fair Grounds in Mason.
Operation Politically Homeless offers us an excellent
opportunity to get the Libertarian message out and find new
members. Even more so at gun shows, where people tend to
have stronger Libertarian leanings.
In exchange for working at the OPH Booth, you'll get
free admission to the show. Here are the dates and times of
the Gun Show. If you're a student and would like to work at
the show, we can arrange for you to get a ride to and from
the Fair Grounds.
Fri, Sept. 24: 2 PM to 8 PM
Sat, Sept. 25: 9 AM to 5 PM
Sun, Sept. 26: 9 AM to 4 PM
If you are available to work any one of these dates (2
or more hours preferred), please contact us as soon as
possible. To volunteer or get answers to any questions you
have, please either send e-mail to Mike Brinkman at
brinkman@tcimet.net, or else call Michael Miller at
351-0514.
Peace, Liberty & Prosperity,
Mike Brinkman

- OPH a Huge Success in Shiawassee County by Ben Steele III
The Libertarian Party of Shiawassee County ran an
Operation Politically Homeless booth at the Shiawassee
County Fair in August. Response was tremendous! The LPSC
gathered 81 names and passed out thousands of pieces of
literature.
Two-hundred ten people took the World's Smallest
Political Quiz, with 79 of them (38%) scoring Libertarian!
The areas where Shiawassee County residents agreed most
were: Ending taxes; Protecting free speech; Free trade; and
Establishing a non-interventionist foreign policy.
The LPSC would like to thank everyone who played a role
in making this outreach effort possible, and successful.
