Agora Underground: New Libertarian Manifesto Pt. 5 - Video

Sean Haugh, North Carolina Libertarian Senate candidate, has the power to swing the vote in this year's election between Republican candidate Thom Tillis and Democrat candidate Kay Hagan who are currently in a statistical dead heat.
The 53-year-old pizza-delivering Libertarian candidate running for U.S. Senate against Thom Tillis and Kay Hagan says he doesnt want any part of the campaigns negativity and attack ads.
In light of a recent analysis that found North Carolinas Senate race has featured more negative ads than any other state, Sean Haugh said in an interview on Friday that his campaign has focused on the positive reasons N.C. residents should vote for him.
Haugh, a Durham resident, thinks Tilliss and Hagans negative ads will help him in the race.
People look at that, and theyre just so disgusted by it, and then they find out they have a third choice on the ballot, he said. Ive been getting a tremendous response from people who are turned off by all that negativity.
It is Haughs sixth time running for political office. He said he has always stood for Libertarian views.
We need to balance the budget at a much lower level, get out in front of this debt and let people keep more of the money that they earn, he said.
AlthoughHaugh has garnered at most 8 percent of the vote in polls this fall, he said the people who vote for him send a strong message to Democrats and Republicans that theyre going to have to start holding more Libertarian views.
He said he ran on an act of conscience because neither Hagan nor Tillis would try to curb war.

CHICAGO (WLS) --
Libertarian party candidate Chad Grimm, 33, is the other name on the ballot for Illinois governor.
"I think the citizens of Illinois are actually ready for a third party," Grimm says. "It's right now."
Grimm says the more voters see of Democrat Pat Quinn and Republican Bruce Rauner in television ads, the less they like either major party candidate.
"Everybody that I talk to is sick of it," he says. "They're sick of the negative ads, they're sick of the negativity."
Grimm is a Peoria resident who spent much of his childhood in north suburban Lake Zurich. As a Libertarian, his position against abortion is based on science as opposed to religion.
"Nobody has been able to show me scientifically that life does not begin at conception and you always have to err on the side of life," he says.
He also is a gun rights supporter and believes drug use should be de-criminalized.
"You don't take someone with a disease and put them in jail and make their life that much worse," he says.
The Illinois Observer's "We Ask America" automated poll last week showed Grimm trailing Quinn and Rauner with 5.6 percent of the vote. But challenger Rauner--campaigning in Chicago Thursday--said a vote for Grimm is actually a vote to keep Quinn in the governor's office.

Two Democrats and a Libertarian are running grass-roots campaigns aimed at unseating incumbent U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise in the 1st Congressional District in Tuesday's election.
Vying for the seat are Democrats Lee Ann Dugas and M.V. Vinny Mendoza, as well as Libertarian Jeffry
Sanford.
The district includes southern Terrebonne and Lafourche parishes, the parishes of Plaquemines, St. Bernard and St. Tammany, and portions of Jefferson, Orleans and Tangipahoa parishes.
Scalise, 49, was first elected to the 1st Congressional District in May 2008 when he won a special election to
fill the seat after it was vacated by Bobby Jindal.
Since his election this year as majority whip, the third most powerful member in the Republican-led House, Scalise has raised his national profile and added significantly to his campaign bank account.
His opponents, who have never held public office, have not reported any campaign contributions to the Federal Election Commission this year.
Scalise heads the Republican Study Committee, a caucus of more than 170 conservative members of the House,
