INDIANAPOLIS, IN - It's time to let the people govern the politicians, not the politicians governing the people.

Such was the message delivered by Andy Horning in remarks at the 2008 Libertarian Party of Indiana state convention held Saturday and Sunday in Indianapolis. Horning's remarks came as he accepted the nomination as the LPIN's candidate in this fall's gubernatorial race. Horning will face incumbent Republican Governor Mitch Daniels and the winner of the May 6th primary between Democrats Jim Schellinger and Jill Long-Thompson.

INDIANAPOLIS, IN -- Marion County Libertarian activist and candidate Timothy Maguire was chosen by the 2008 LPIN convention attendees as their choice for the Dr. Barbara Bourland Light of Liberty award this past weekend.

Originally from Illinois, Tim and his wife Allison moved to Indianapolis five years ago, and instantly fell in love with the city. They were married here, bought a house here, and adopted two dogs here. They have “planted their flag” in Indianapolis and are proud to call themselves Hoosiers.
