Chris Lawrence: Libertarian for Congress

We Win!

(At least a moral victory)

I'd like to thank everyone who voted for me! We've built on our record from 1996 and look forward to turning this into a Libertarian decade. Thanks again for your support for me and for the party's candidates in Mississippi and throughout the country.

First Congressional District of Mississippi

Welcome to my campaign web site! There will be more here soon, but here are some links to get you started.

• My biography.
• A press release announcing my candidacy.

Press Coverage

• An article about my candidacy appeared in the 19 January 2000 issue of the Daily Mississippian, the University of Mississippi's daily campus newspaper.

Libertarian Links

• Chris supports Harry Browne's Campaign for President. Harry's new book, The Great Libertarian Offer, should be released in the coming weeks.
• The Libertarian Party's national web site, where you can learn more about the party's positions on many issues.
• A preliminary LP of Mississippi web site is now available.
• If you're not in northern Mississippi, there are hundreds of other Libertarian candidates this year, some of whom you probably can vote for. If you are here in my district, or elsewhere in Mississippi, don't forget to vote for Lewis Napper for U.S. Senator.
• You can take the World's Smallest Political Quiz and also use the American Presidential Candidate Selector to see where your political views appear to "fit in".
• Eric S. Raymond has written a Libertarianism FAQ, which spells out the core tenets of libertarian philosophy. Eric is also a noted member of the free software community and has written an excellent book about it, entitled The Cathedral and the Bazaar.

Contributions

Contributions can be sent to:

Lawrence for Congress, Inc.
P.O. Box 2262
Oxford, Mississippi 38655-7262

Your contribution will not be deposited until our campaign account has been established. Please note that according to FEC regulations, you may only contribute $1,000 ($2,000 for a joint contribution with your spouse) towards my "primary" campaign, and the same amount towards my "general election" campaign.

Your contribution of $1 or more entitles you to a free Lawrence for Congress bumper sticker, while supplies last!

Please include your name, address and telephone number. If you contribute over $200, you must also report the name of your employer and your occupation. This information will be disclosed to the FEC if the campaign receives more than $5000 in contributions.

Online contributions may be accepted shortly, once all of the campaign accounts are established and we're totally up-to-speed.

If you have any questions, email me and I'll try to explain this more clearly (the FEC guides are about as clear as mud).
