GAINESVILLE, Fla. (WOGX FOX 51) -
Gary Johnson, former two term Governor of New Mexico and Libertarian presidential candidate will hold a "Cocktail Party Kickoff" on Wednesday, July 25th, 2012, to launch his North Florida campaign.
The event is open to supporters of the candidate and begins at 7:30 p.m. at Farrah's Bar and Grille, 1120 W. University Avenue, in Gainesville.
Johnson recently completed a whistle stop tour of Florida. He is well known for vetoing more than 750 bills in New Mexico and never raised taxes. He first ran in the Republican presidential primary, before withdrawing and announcing a third-party candidacy.
Johnson is fiscally conservative but supports such liberal causes as legalizing marijuana and abortion rights.
