Jason Dye

Candidate Bio

Jason Dye is the Libertarian Party nominee for Attorney General of Michigan in the 2026 election and the founder of We The People News (WTPN.news), an independent online platform focused on government transparency, campaign finance, public records, and political accountability. WTPN was created with the stated goal of encouraging voters to “follow the receipts” by providing access to campaign filings, donor information, public documents, and fact-based reporting on Michigan politics.

As a candidate for Attorney General, Dye has centered his campaign on constitutional government, civil liberties, government transparency, and combating public corruption. He argues that the Attorney General’s office should serve as an independent watchdog, enforcing the law equally regardless of political affiliation. His platform emphasizes protecting individual rights, increasing public access to government records, and holding public officials accountable through impartial enforcement of the law.

In addition to his campaign, Dye continues to oversee WTPN.news. The website states that it applies the same transparency standards to Dye’s own campaign as it does to other candidates by publishing campaign information, public filings, donor records, and corrections alongside those of other public officials. According to the site, this reflects its commitment to consistency and public accountability.

Supporters view Jason Dye as an advocate for limited government, transparency, and constitutional protections. His campaign seeks to appeal to voters who believe the Attorney General should function as an independent guardian of the rule of law rather than as a partisan political figure. As Michigan’s Libertarian nominee for Attorney General, Dye offers an alternative to the Democratic and Republican candidates while emphasizing accountability, open government, and equal application of the law.
