Kathie Glass, Libertarian candidate for governor, will visit with constituents Thursday during a campaign trip to Marshall.

The reception, hosted by the Libertarian Party of Harrison County, will begin at 9 a.m. at Central Perks Coffee House in the Weisman Center, 211 N. Washington Ave.

The Libertarian Party of Harrison County is excited that Kathie Glass is starting her campaign tour in East Texas, and actually including a stop in Marshall to meet residents of Harrison County, said Michele Swint, chair of the local political party. We couldn't be happier to host this event for our gubernatorial candidate.

We encourage all interested constituents that love liberty, Texas and the Constitution to join us, Swint said. Kathie will share her plans to resist federal tyranny and the over-reaching government.

She said the public is invited to meet the candidate, ask questions and hear her solutions for issues challenging Texas.

This is Harrison County's opportunity to be heard and ask questions about issues important to us, said Swint.

According to her biography, Glass, a Georgia native, is a patriot, wife, mother, lawyer and business owner. She was the first person in her family to go to college and worked her way through college and law school.

The candidate moved to Texas in July 1977, and has been a proud Texan ever since.

Kathie practiced as a highly successful civil trial lawyer in Houston for over 30 years, trying many cases and never losing a jury trial, her bio reads.

During her career, she worked in various firms, including her own in which she employed as many as 20.
