Eric Von Haessler will not run for United States Senate against Johnny Isakson in 2010, largely due to regulations that would force him off the air during his campaign. He made it clear to those of us who had been working with him that he isn't ruling out a run as a Libertarian in the future and he added that he will work on behalf of the party during the upcoming election.

Haessler spoke at both tea parties in Atlanta (video here and here) and gave a speech at the Georgia Libertarian Party convention explaining his journey from the Republican Party.

There are other people that have expressed interest in running for the seat within the party. No word on pending announcements.
