OLIVER TO HELP SIGNATURE DRIVE, SUPPORT BETTER VOTING

ATLANTA - Chase Oliver will spend Friday through Sunday in Boise, Idaho, spreading his message of peace, love, and liberty with both Libertarians and non-Libertarians.

“I’ll be kicking off my tour in the West by visiting Idaho,” says Oliver, 38, Rolling Stone’s “Most Influential Libertarian” and Libertarian presidential hopeful.


“Activists there are working hard on issues like cannabis freedom and ranked-choice voting. I look forward to spending time on the ground helping these activists spread their message, and grow the liberty movement in the Gem State,” he adds.

Oliver also will attend events kicking off Hispanic Heritage Month and a demonstration demanding rights for Iranian women, using his run for president to shine the spotlight on political and social activists who are doing the heavy lifting in their communities.
