GOSHEN – Will Henry for Congress announced the unanimous vote of the Libertarian Party of Indiana leadership to place William E. Henry on the ballot for the special election scheduled for Election Day, Nov. 8.
Leadership met on Aug. 21 for an emergency meeting where they made the nomination and voted for Henry, according to a news release from his campaign.
“I am honored to have been nominated and selected to represent the Libertarian Party of Indiana and the Second Congressional District in this special election,” said Henry. “I’ve already spoken with so many liberty-minded citizens in this district who are ready for a change, and I have the knowledge, experience, and heart to fight for them in Washington, D.C.”
Henry is a U.S. Army veteran who earned a Bronze Star for his journalism work in Afghanistan. He is known throughout the state for his advocacy work for Indiana military veterans, supporting alternative medical treatments, exposing government fraud, waste and abuse, working on medical trial research, fighting for individual and Constitutional rights and defending medical freedoms, the release states.
Henry will be placed alongside the other candidates on the ballot Election Day. Henry ran in 2020 as Libertarian lieutenant governor alongside Donald Rainwater and the pair earned 11.4% of the statewide vote.
The special election will determine the candidate who will serve the remainder of the late Rep. Jackie Walorski’s term, and duties would be scheduled to begin about a month before the general election duties begin.
Republicans chose Rudy Yakim III at their caucus Saturday, and Democrats were scheduled to caucus Tuesday night.
