The Libertarian Party of Florida is embroiled in controversy surrounding its Senate candidate, one Augustus Sol Invictus (a self-given name which roughly means "Invincible Sun Emperor").
The conflict came to a head on Thursday with the resignation of the party's state chair, Adrian Wyllie. "I resigned to draw attention to this, as a protest," Wyllie explained. "I don't want anyone to think this guy represents Libertarians. He doesn't. Under the law, we can't keep him from the ballot.”
