Libertarian Adrian Wyllie Showcases Running Mate Greg Roe

Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Adrian Wyllie will be showcasing his new running mate -- businessman Greg Roe, who has spent more than 30 years in the insurance industry -- at campaign stops in Largo on Wednesday and Clearwater on Thursday. Wyllie is spending August touring craft breweries across the Sunshine State.

"Political wisdom would say I should be looking for a person from the right geographical region or a certain demographic," Wyllie said when he announced Roe being added to the ticket on Monday night. "However, I decided to choose the right person to serve the people of Florida instead. Insurance, property, flood and especially health insurance, is going to be vital in the upcoming years and something that will be tasked upon us should we win this election. I am honored to have someone who can address these important issues as my running mate."

"I am proud to stand behind Adrian Wyllie," Roe insisted after being named. "I am honored to join this team and send out a strong message that the people are fed up with the two-party system. We are just getting started."

The Wyllie campaign doubled down on its support of Roe on Wednesday.

"We are excited to have Greg Roe as the lieutenant governor choice, said Danielle Alexander, Wyllies campaign manager, on Wednesday. I believe he brings a lot to the campaign and we could not be happier with the choices Floridians now have to address the issues facing all of us."
