IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 3, 2018 For more information, please contact Ken Krawchuk at Campaign@KenK4Pa.com or 224-Krawchuk (224-572-9248) LIBERTARIAN GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE KEN KRAWCHUK ORGANIZING RALLY AND AFTER PARTY ABINGTON, PA – Ken Krawchuk, the Libertarian Party candidate for Pennsylvania Governor, will be holding a "Meet the Candidates" rally on the steps of the Capitol Rotunda in Harrisburg from 1 PM to 5 PM on Sunday, August 11, 2018. In addition to Krawchuk, most of the 18 Libertarian Party candidates for 2018 will be in attendance, including Lieutenant Governor candidate Kathy Smith. Following the rally, from 6 PM to 10 PM there will be reception at the Capitol Gastropub, 310 North 2nd Street, Harrisburg, PA 17101. Both events are free and open to the public, and additional details will be made available as the event comes closer. RSVPs for the evening event are requested via https://www.facebook.com/events/681543402179071. Krawchuk, 65, is an Information Technology entrepreneur from Abington, Pa. He has appeared on the gubernatorial ballot twice before, facing Democrat Ed Rendell in 2002 and Republican Tom Ridge in 1998. Smith is a retired retail merchant from Canonsburg, Pa, and has served two terms on her local school board, one of them as board president. Because of Pennsylvania's onerous ballot access laws, Krawchuk is the last third party or independent gubernatorial candidate to appear on the Pennsylvania ballot since 2002. His return to politics comes on the heels of his federal court victory in 2016 that ruled unconstitutional the $80,000+ fines that have been levied against statewide candidates who are unsuccessful in their attempt to appear on the November ballot. Founded in 1971, the Libertarian Party is the third largest political party in the state and the nation, with over 150 elected and appointed officials currently serving in office nationwide, and 40 in Pennsylvania. Libertarians are fiscally conservative and socially liberal, and like the Founding Fathers, Libertarians believe that you have the inalienable right to conduct your life as you see fit, without interference, so long as you respect the rights and property of others. For more information about the Libertarian Party, the public is invited to contact the Krawchuk campaign at www.KenK4Pa.com, Campaign@KenK4Pa.com, or (224) Krawchuk (224-572-9248), the Libertarian Party of Pennsylvania at www.LpPa.org or (800) R-RIGHTS, or the National Libertarian Party at www.Lp.org or (202) 333-0008.
