Libertarian candidate for governor Adrian Wyllie is about to start running his first TV ad of the campaign on stations in Tampa Bay. His low-budget campaign relies on advertisers who support him, such as a Tampa dry cleaning company, to donate TV ad time as in-kind contributions on cable channels. In the 30-second spot, Wyllie tells voters they have an alternative to Gov. Rick Scott and Charlie Crist. Here's the script:
"You have been inundated with attack ads about Rick Scott and Charlie Crist. Sadly, they are mostly true. The good news is, you have a third choice. I'm Adrian Wyllie, Libertarian candidate for governor of Florida. I am in this race because I'm like you. I'm fed up with the politicians using money and power to benefit themselves while making our lives more difficult. I want you and your family to enjoy freedom and prosperity. Don't let them scare you into voting for more of the same. This time, take a stand."
Wyllie's campaign said the ad will appear in other TV markets as other supporters agree to donate their advertising time. Spokeswoman Danielle Alexandre said the spot is making its debut in Tampa Bay because "this is our home."
Wyllie, 44, of Palm Harbor, is a self-employed IT consultant who opposes the Common Core teaching standards and the state's REAL ID law and has pledged to cut the state budget by one-third if he's elected in November. An earlier profile of his candidacy is here.

The Libertarian candidate for Texas governor, Kathie Glass is on the road again as she is on another 50-county installment of her Texas 254 Tour. In the tour, Glass vows on spreading her message across the 254 counties of Texas before Election Day, when she will take on Republican candidate Greg Abbott and Democrat Wendy Davis in hopes of succeeding Gov. Rick Perry.
On Monday, Glass campaign bus rolled into Plainview on her tour through the Texas Panhandle which began from her ranch outside McDade on Sept. 20. Glass plans to visit every county in the region and attend events in Amarillo and Lubbock, including the South Plains Fair.
Armed with flyers and a soapbox, Glass says she is ready to take on the tyranny of the federal government, but also the broken two-party system in Texas, which she says more often serves political cronyism then the people.
Texas is not only plagued by federal tyranny from Washington, but also cronyism here at home, said Glass. Tax monies for favored businesses, water for developers, land for toll roads and pipelines, cronies are using Texas government to become more rich and more powerful at the expense of the rest of us.
According to Glass, liberty and country are dying primarily to federal tyranny caused by a federal government that refused to abide by the Constitution and calls for the nullification of unconstitutional federal acts as the remedy.
The Republican nominee Greg Abbott thinks standing up to the federal government means filing a lawsuit, said Glass. If thats a winning strategy, why are we in this mess? Dont sue the buzzards, arrest them.
Glass, who is a former lawyer in the Houston area, adds that Washington is broken and the two-party system is corrupted by special interests.
If we are to save our liberty, our Constitution and our country, we have to chart a new course away from Washington and outside the corrupt two-party system, said Glass.
Glass said she believes that the current border crisis was caused by a combination of federal overreach and cronyism.
Immigration is not delegated to the federal government in the Constitution. If we are going to solve the border crisis, Texans must enforce state law against trespass and other crimes on the border using our Texas State Guard, and we must craft our own Texas immigration policy that included a welcome guest worker program, said Glass.

BISMARCK, N.D. -- The Libertarian Party of North Dakota came out against a right to life measure at a statewide meeting in Bismarck, and declared its support for a measure that would replace the state Board of Higher Education.
The partys meeting kicks off its final campaign push prior to the Nov. 4 general election.
Measure 1 would place a single sentence in the state constitution stating that a right to life at all stages of development must be protected.
Libertarian Party officials in a statement said placing such language in law has failed in other states. They go on to declare Measure 1 a radical change to the North Dakota Constitution that gives human rights to fertilized eggs.
The Libertarian Party came out against Measures 4 and 5 as well. Measure 4 amends the ballot measure process and Measure 5 would create a state conservation fund using 5 percent of the states oil extraction tax revenue.
The party also declared support for Measure 3. It would replace the eight-member part-time state Board of Higher Education with a three-member full-time Commission of Higher Education.
Libertarian officials said they support it, but added that they believe such a change is only a slightly better system than what is currently in place.
