According to the Virginia State Board of Elections, Robert Sarvis has been validated as an official candidate for the Virginia gubernatorial race. Virginia election rules require that statewide candidates gather 10,000 signatures of registered Virginia voters, with 400 of those signatures collected from each congressional district. Robert Sarvis says “Virginia needs open-minded, economically literate leadership, not culture wars and class wars.” Robert Sarvis has emphasized empowering parents by championing school choice, and providing tax relief and job growth through tax reform. Sarvis’s campaign is also highlighting the importance of protecting gun rights, recognizing gay marriages, and reforming our drug laws to reduce violence and restore civil liberties. When asked about his plan for Virginia, Sarvis responded: “by protecting personal and economic freedom, we can make Virginia the envy of the world, with a growing economy that adds jobs and raises incomes, and a system of laws providing equality and justice for all. So let's buck the two-party system, bring people together, and build a Virginia that's open-minded and open for business.” Patrick Hagerty, candidate for House of Delegates in the 33rd district of Virginia, also received verification from the Board of Elections that he would be on the ballot in November. Adding this Leesburg business owner to the slate of House of Delegates candidates brings the total number of LPVA candidates to eight; making 2013 the largest slate of candidates the Libertarian Party of Virginia has run in over a decade.
