The Caddo and Bossier parish libertarian parties held a liberty session this afternoon.

Candidates for local, state, and federal positions talked about the issues they want to take on in office.

The audience was able to ask questions followed by short speeches from the candidates.

Randall Lord, Candidate for US House District 4, says as a libertarian he can vote based on issues and not party politics.

"If a civil liberties issue comes up that the Democrats are very much in favor of but the Republicans are opposed I can vote with the Democrats, Lord said If a spending issue comes up that I agree with the Republicans on, I will vote on that side. So I can go back and forth. I will vote with the issues not with the political parties."

Lord is running against Republican, John Fleming.
