AUSTIN, TEXAS - February 5th, 2010 -- The Libertarian Party of Texas will officially open their new headquarters in Austin on Monday, February 8th at 7:00PM at 1904 Guadalupe St. Libertarians and the general public are invited to attend the Grand Opening celebration.  Refreshments will be provided.  LPT Executive Director Robert Butler will also be signing copies of his new book, 18 Steps to Win a Local Election.
 
"We are very excited about our new office in the heart of Austin, right between the university and the Texas Capitol.  We look forward to working with the Libertarian Longhorns, and being a resource for Libertarians statewide," said LPT Chair Patrick Dixon.  "We are also right down the hallway from Brave New Books which has been a gathering place for Austin's liberty movement for four years."
 
18 Steps to Win a Local Election is the first campaign handbook and workbook written expressly for Libertarians and other supporters of small government.  Robert Butler has 20 years of political experience.  He worked for US Senator Connie Mack, US Representative Porter Goss, and the Republican National Committee in the 1990s before becoming a Libertarian in 2001.  Since then, he served in the Libertarian Parties of Indiana and Ohio before taking his current position as Executive Director of the Libertarian Party of Texas.  He tied all these experiences together in the 18 Steps.
 
"We have a strong field of candidates this year.  Our new office and this new book will only enhance their ability to run effective campaigns," said Butler.
 
In response to his newest neighbor, Harlan Dietrich, owner of Brave New Books said, "This store promotes local activism through its literature.  Robert Butler's 18 Steps enables that, and I hope the new Libertarian headquarters will provide the synthesis of political action and education."

       

            

Cecil Anthony Ince for State Rep. Dist. 105

  Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters:
 Since I decided to run for Texas State Representative District #105, the campaign has taken off. Begin with much skepticism, many our learning the message of freedom that I am offering and see that I am dedicating to winning. In response to our first fund raising letter we have begun to receive campaign contributions. Our goal is to raise the necessary funds to launch a massive sign campaign across the 105th district as the first phase of this campaign. It is estimated that we will need about $5,000 to achieve this goal.
 
 The donations are trickling in and the Democrat and Republican primaries are nearly here. I plan to start the first wave of yard signs on March 3rd and again I call on you to help make this possible. I can win this campaign contrary to individual beliefs requiring being a Libertarian candidate. Citizens feel disenfranchised and have lost faith in the two parties. In resent events we have seen the 9-12 groups and the Tea Parties emerge out of these discontented voters. It is due to this diversity that I believe I can gain a majority of the vote from the voters of the 105th district.
 
 To be successful in this endeavor it will take a very strong and dedicated grass roots organization.   I believe the voters of this district will step forward in a united volunteer effort.    As you may have guessed we are already hard at work designing flyers, building winning strategies, and scouting for a campaign headquarters.   Soon we will be organizing to knock on doors, place yard signs and of course, participate in any upcoming parades or events. 
 
  With thousands of brochures to purchase, hundreds of yard signs to order, scores of radio ads to place, and the entire city of Irving to cover, I will need help. I am turning to the people who have known me the longest, who know me best, and humbly inviting you to get involved in my campaign and help make a difference. 
 
 Your early contribution, made payable to “ The Committee to Elect Cecil Anthony Ince” will give our race a tremendous boost right out of the starting block. Having no primary challenger we can begin focusing on the November general election. 
 
 Your gift of $25, $50, or $100 will help me raise the vital “seed money” I need to successfully launch the first wave of this campaign.
 
 Our goal is to raise $5,000 by April 13th, and I humbly ask for your support in helping us rise to this great challenge. 
 
 Please visit my website at www.cecilince.com/2010.donat.html to donate and help me in my journey to restore common sense to the Texas Statehouse. 
 
 Thanks in advance for your encouragement, generous support, and prayers. I am grateful for your friendship and wish you blessings!
                                                                        Sincerely yours,
 
                                                                        Cecil Anthony Ince
