Libertarians consider racist filer
NEWS-LEADER STAFF AND WIRES
Officials of the state's Libertarian Party will spend the weekend trying to decide whether to allow white supremacist Glenn Miller to run for Congress under their banner.
The Army veteran and retired truck driver from Aurora wants to run for the seat held by Rep. Roy Blunt, R-Indian Point, who filed for re-election on Friday.
Miller originally filed with the secretary of state's office as a Democrat on Monday. His $100 filing fee was forwarded to the Missouri Democratic Party, which rejected the money, meaning he is not qualified to run on the Democratic ticket.
He said he would run as a Republican; party leaders told him not to bother.

When a white suprmacist is willing to try to get on the ballot, I wonder where we are.
Particularly when the confederate flag has become an issue.
