If your part of the state is not represented yet, call 516 SOS GOVT to talk to someone, or email members of the state committee. The LPNY Bylaws explain how a local libertarian group can become recognized by the state party, earning a voting representative on the State Committee. A short Guide to becoming an Affiliate of the Libertarian Party of NY has also been prepared.
