Minnesota Libertarian arrested for collecting ballot signatures in a park

“Gubernatorial candidate Chris Holbrook was arrested for exercising his 1st Amendment rights while in a public park.  He and some supporters were peacefully gathering signatures  to achieve ballot access — a fundamental political freedom — but police insisted that he needed a permit and placed him in shackles.  Chris Holbrook, who is running for governor of Minnesota on the Libertarian Party ticket, has 2 weeks to gather 2,000 signatures in order to appear on the ballot.  This is a requirement of all minor parties in state-wide races in Minnesota.  Holbrook’s deadline is June 3rd.  Mr. Holbrook was taken away by police and charged with advertising without a license.”
