- Prohibition vote close, but not close enough
by Jason C. Miller
Ottawa Libertarians Fight Alcohol Prohibition
Libertarians in Ottawa County organized to help fight
for an iniative to repeal Hudsonville's ban on alcohol
sales. For 10 years Hudsonville has been a try town and
after a close vote it will continue to be.
Almost a dozen Libertarians handed out several hundred
pieces of literature on August 7 in a get out the vote
drive. Though they may have brought out voters from the
other side, they did make a difference: Hudsonville's voter
turnout rate more than twice that of the area.
Efforts to launch another local ballot question for the
November 7 election are already starting.

- Meet Harry Browne at Stempfle Fundraiser
by Greg Stempfle
Fellow Libertarians,
Would you like another opportunity to meet Harry Browne
in a more intimate setting? By blind luck, the Fundraiser
for Greg Stempfle falls on the same day as Harry Browne's
visit to Michigan. It has just been confirmed by the Browne
Committee and BARC that Harry will be stopping by sometime
that evening.
Libertarian Candidate for Dearborn State
Representative, Greg Stempfle, already running one of the
most active campaign of the year, will be having a
Fundraiser/Garden Party on Sunday August 27. The event will
be hosted by Ben and Anina Bachrach at thier home on 21835
Cherry Hill in Dearborn, between Brady and Military, from 3
until 8 pm. US Senate Candidate Michael Corliss will also
be a guest speaker.
Stempfle is targeting his campaign efforts on younger
voters and other non-traditional voting blocks in hopes of
triggering the largest voter turnout in the history of the
city. Let's get behind our local candidates!
Tickets to the fundraiser can be bought from Greg
Stempfle, Ben Bachrach, or at the door for a
libertarian-special price of $15. Food and drink provided
and everybody purchasing a ticket will be entered into a
raffle to win a copy of the new Harry Browne book "The Great
Libertarian Offer"
