Libertarians pick Glass - Alex Wukman, FME News Service, Killeen Daily Herald: 

April 13, 2014 - "Kathie Glass claimed the Libertarian Party of Texas’ gubernatorial nomination Saturday night at the Frank W. Mayborn Civic and Convention Center. Glass’ victory came after a first ballot tie with Robert Bell forced the election into an immediate runoff.

"During her nomination speech Glass, a Houston attorney who previously ran for governor on the Libertarian ticket in 2010, promised she would continue building the party and increasing its visibility.

"'Four years ago, when you honored me with the nomination, I promised that I would give you the most professional and well-funded campaign this party had ever seen,' Glass said. 'If you honor me with the nomination again, I’ll top what we did in 2010.'

"Glass also told the 219 delegates in attendance that she would remain true to the principles of the Libertarian Party and continue to challenge federal authority.

 "'We live in a surveillance state,' Glass said. 'That’s certainly going to grow into a police state.'"
