Libertarian John Monds set to announce 2010 governor bid
March 24, 2009 at 4:02 pm by Thomas Wheatley in NewsThe Cairo, Ga., resident — who ran for Public Service Commission last year — is set to announce his bid at 4 p.m. tomorrow at the Capitol.
From an e-mail release:
Monds and the Libertarian Party believe Georgians are ready for something new and different. “It’s difficult to tell the difference between Republicans and Democrats; both want to raise your taxes, waste your money and increase the size and scope of state government,” said Monds.
“We must be competitive in the 21st Century. We must have meaningful tax reform that allows businesses and individuals to thrive, a transportation system that eases congestion without raising taxes, an education system that gives more choices and returns control to the local level, and we need to stop wasting the taxpayers’ money with mandated long term incarceration of individuals for non-violent victimless infractions of the law”
John Monds, 43, is a graduate of Morehouse College with a degree in Banking and Finance, President of the Grady County NAACP and currently serves on the Grady County Planning Commission.
