Libertarian Barr visits Duke, UNC
Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama aren’t the only presidential candidates making the rounds on college campuses in North Carolina. Libertarian candidate Bob Barr spoke Tuesday at both Duke University and UNC-Chapel Hill.
“A wasted vote is a vote for the Democrats or the Republicans because, regardless of the Republican or Democratic candidate being elected, nothing will change,” Barr said at Duke.
At UNC-CH, many attendees said they had already voted for Barr.
Libertarians have been getting more attention that ever, especially in North Carolina, where Duke professor and Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Mike Munger is campaigning heavily. But at least at UNC-CH, Libertarian students seem to have a much smaller presence. It’ll be interesting to see how many cast votes for third parties.
