(Evansville, IN)Â Michael Daugherty, Libertarian candidate for mayor of Evansville, is holding a campaign fundraiser and speaking event on Sunday, April 16 from 12pm to 4pm. This event offers a full brunch menu and is open to the public. Daugherty will give voters a chance to meet, pose questions, and voice concerns to him.
Daugherty is a graduate of North High School and holds a Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering and a Master’s in Business Administration from Purdue University. He has experience working in business and non-profit organizations. He recently sold his business to run a horse farm in Evansville.
The key issues for Daugherty’s campaign are keeping city government fiscally sound, addressing the level of violent crime, and making the city more attractive to visitors.
Daugherty was inspired to run on the Libertarian ticket due in part to Donald Rainwater’s (L) unprecedented run for governor in 2020, placing second in more than one-third of Indiana counties. Rainwater has announced his campaign to run for governor again in 2024. Andrew Horning (L), who ran for the 8th Congressional district in 2022, has also announced a campaign to run for U.S. Senate.
