Restoration of Page to Original Status

At this point, I am reverting the changes to this page to their status prior to the claimed dissolution of the party by the previous board.

At this juncture, the following is undebatable:

1.) The state party itself considers itself active. [1]https://lpofva.com/

2.) The national party considers it active [2]https://www.lp.org/state-affiliates/

3.) The FEC considers the party active [3]https://www.fec.gov/data/committee/C00399865/ - It should be noted that this never seemed to change in either the state or local level

4.) The PAC is still registered, active, and filing as appropriate post the alleged dissolution with the State of Virginia. (this being the most important item) [4]https://cfreports.elections.virginia.gov/Committee/Index/f4c24292-b687-e111-9bed-984be103f032

5.) The corporation is active in the VA State Corporation Commission Database [5]https://cis.scc.virginia.gov/EntitySearch/BusinessInformation?businessId=300453&source=FromEntityResult&isSeries%20=%20false (although this does not appear to have been necessary for the PAC to continue to exist)

6.) It has held a convention which was reported on in one of the news outlets that covered the initial claimed dissolution by the previous board. In this story, the former chair of the party does not dispute that the new leadership is valid, and that they are the former leadership.

There is therefore no reasonable way in which a conclusion can be drawn that the Libertarian Party of Virginia is not currently active. Horus829 (talk) 01:55, 4 January 2023 (UTC) — Horus829 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
