BREAKING NEWS... LR EXCLUSIVE!

From Eric Dondero:

I'm happy to report that a personal friend and political ally of mine, is planning to run for state legislature this year. Longtime libertarian activist Scott Tillman contacted Libertarian Republican with the news that he will announce next week his candidacy for the Michigan House of Representatives. Scott is well-known to those who've been involved with Americans for Limited Government, Sam Adams Alliance, and the nationwide Property Rights/Spending Limits movements. Scott, a close friend and ally of Paul Jacob, has campaigned for economic libertarian initiatives in Montana, Idaho, Colorado, Illinois, Washington State, and most notably in Oklahoma. He has also been closely involved with former MI State Rep. Leon Drolet and the Michigan Taxpayers Alliance.

His home district is mid-coastal northwest Michigan (light blue area on map). The largest town is Fremont. So far, three other Republicans have let it be known that they're interested in the seat. The incumbent Republican is term-limited.
