In 1984, Representative Andre Marrou became the third Libertarian         
     
elected to the Alaska State Legislature.  During his term he was, in      
     
the words of Republican Minority Leader Terry Martin, "the conscience     
     
of the Legislature."                                                      
     
                                                                          
     
Representative Marrou was in the news almost daily.  De was widely        
     
acknowledged to have received even more media attention than Alaska's     
     
governor.                                                                 
     
                                                                          
     
Marrou voted against every increase of government power.  He was          
     
instrumental in the drive to repeal the Alaska state income tax.  He      
     
later co-sponsored and spearheaded a successful initiative to             
     
deregulate the transportation industry.                                   
     
                                                                          
     
In 1988, Marrou was nominated as Congressman Ron Paul's running mate      
     
on the Libertarian presidential ticket.  He worked tirelessly,            
     
campaigning in all 50 states and conducting well over 1,000               
     
television, radio, and newspaper interviews.                              
     
                                                                          
     
The most frustrating aspect of the 1988 race was the back-breaking        
     
effort required to gain access to the ballot in all 50 states plus the    
     
District of Columbia.  In the end, nearly half a million dollars was      
     
spent on the effort, but ballot status was achieved in only 46 states     
     
plus D. C.                                                                
     
                                                                          
     
In response to this, Representative Marrou spent most of the next         
     
four years as Director of PROJECT 51-'92 working to ease ballot access    
     
laws across the country.  Under his leadership, PROJECT 51-'92 also       
     
conducted signature drives in states with particularly difficult          
     
requirements such as North Carolina.                                      
     
                                                                          
     
Before entering politics full-time, Representative Marrou worked as an    
     
engineering manager in Boston and as a small businessman in Alaska,       
     
operating a food and liquor distributorship as well as a real estate      
     
brokerage.  He has also worked from time to time as a radio               
     
personality.  He was an active volunteer in civilian rescue               
     
operations in Alaska.                                                     
     
                                                                          
     
Representative Marrou and his running mate, Dr. Nancy Lord, will be       
     
joined on the ballot in 1992 by up to 500 federal, state, and local       
     
Libertarian candidates.
