Austin Libertarian Says No to Old Nominees

"Good for my November opponent for recognizing that Trump is disastrous for the country, and that Biden should withdraw due to old age," says Girish Altekar, Libertarian nominee for the U.S. House in Texas District 37. He also calls out Rep. Doggett, suggesting he should step down after 25 years in office.

Altekar proposes a controversial amendment to disqualify those over 75 from running for the U.S. House, Senate, or Presidency.
