From IPR

I have received the names of the presidential candidates scheduled to participate in the 2020 Lesser-Known Presidential Candidates Forum this Tuesday at Saint Anselm College in New Hampshire.  Participants include several candidates familiar to those of us who follow third party and independent politics, including former college football coach (and 2012 Constitution Party and Reform Party presidential candidate) Robby Wells, trans-humanist (and former 2020 Libertarian Party presidential candidate) Zoltan Istvan, and others.

Greg Seltzer Drops Presidential Bid & Steps Down as Prohibition Party Chair

As reported in The National Prohibitionist and at Independent Political Report, Rev. Greg Seltzer of Maryland is ending his 2016 campaign for president and is stepping down as Chairman of the Prohibition Party.  This comes as the new Governor of Maryland Larry Hogan, a Republican, named Seltzer to the state’s Election Board.

Seltzer is a retired history professor and Presbyterian Minister.  He took over as Prohibition Party Chairman early last year when Rev. Toby Davis, the 2012 vice presidential nominee, stepped down due to a busy schedule.  He  previously served on the Maryland Election Board from 2002 to 2006 during the state’s last Republican administration.
