Today, a pre-recorded radio interview with Georgia Public Service Commissioner Stan Wise (R) was aired on WLYU 100.9 FM in Lyons GA. “What is Goin’ On” host, Wilson Smith, asked Wise about the PSC race and his opponents. Wise acknowledged he had two opponents, including Libertarian candidate Kevin Cherry.
During the interview, Wilson Smith told Stan Wise that the more he talks to Libertarians “the more he likes them”. Stan Wise blurted out an absurd claim that he is “a better libertarian” than the Libertarian candidate.
Kevin Cherry, the real libertarian candidate found his claims amusing and insulting.
“Stan Wise must be suffering from an identity crisis,” Cherry said. “Stan is a big government Republican who supports protecting regulated monopolies; libertarians believe in free market solutions, not government controlled industries.”
Cherry said he was flattered Stan wants to be associated with libertarianism but points out if Wise wants to be a libertarian he should join the Libertarian Party.
Trevor Southerland, Executive Director of the Libertarian Party of Georgia said he welcomes both Democrats and Republicans to join our Party.
“The two major parties have moved to the extreme fringes, while the Libertarian Party is still in the mainstream middle,” Southerland said. “Kevin Cherry is the real deal. He has been a member of the Libertarian Party since the 1980’s. Kevin has been a leader in his community and has led the Douglas County Libertarian Party.”
Under Kevin Cherry’s leadership, the Libertarian Party was first to author and introduce eminent domain / property rights legislation (HR-87) to the Georgia General Assembly.
Established in 1971, the Libertarian Party is the 3rd largest political party in America. The Libertarian Party of Georgia has secured ballot access to state-wide races since the 1980’s. The Republican Party of Georgia won its first state-wide race in 1992.
