The Texas Libertarian Party is coming to Fort Worth in June for its state convention, setting up shop at the Radisson Hotel Fossil Creek June 13-15.
According to a news release from party HQ in Austin, more than 200 candidates are seeking the Libertarian nomination for a variety of offices up and down the November ballot.
"Unlike the Republican and Democratic parties, which nominate their candidates with primaries, the LPT will nominate its candidates in conventions," the release says. "Chapter 181 of the Texas Election Code describes the procedure for parties that nominate with conventions, while Chapters 171-174 govern parties that nominate with primaries -- currently just the Republicans and Democrats."
