CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) - Organizers for the Bob Barr campaign for president plan to turn in petitions to the West Virginia Secretary of State Friday. The signatures are expected to surpass the 15,000 needed to gain ballot access in West Virginia.
Organizers have been collecting signatures for the past couple weeks to get the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate on the ballot.
The group will hold a media briefing immediately after turning in the required signatures by the deadline tomorrow at the state capitol.
Barr served as a congressman from Georgia from 1995 to 2003.
