How 10% of the Vote Could Change Indiana Politics | Lauri Shillings, Libertarian Nominee for Indiana Secretary of State
On today's show I sat down with Lauri Shillings, Libertarian nominee for Indiana Secretary of State, about her unconventional path into politics, Libertarian values, and why the SOS race matters.
Shillings discusses her background in media and leadership, her entry into the party through local involvement, and Libertarian principles like limited government and the non-aggression pledge. She explains Indiana ballot access rules tied to the Secretary of State race, including the 2% threshold to maintain access and 10% for major-party benefits like primaries and election board seats.
Shillings describes campaigning statewide on a grassroots budget, debate experiences, concerns about voter fraud claims, and the administrative nature of the office, including fixing broken state election systems.
