The New Hampshire Libertarian Party web page has these results of its party-administered presidential primary. Vermin Supreme placed first. The number of ballots cast was 44.

These results have been available for around a month, I believe I even emailed them to you myself in January.
Better late than never.
NOOO caucuses, primaries and conventions.
ONE election day.
EQUAL ballot access nom pets.

Richard might have been afraid that if he posted them earlier, it might affected the results from Dixville Notch
I think Vermin has a lock on this.
Richard held off because his candidate Chafee didn’t do well.
2016 Prez NH
Johnson LP 30,777
44 x 100 / 30,777 = X
solve for X.
Anonymous, I haven’t decided whom I support for the Libertarian presidential nomination.
Why does the NHLP not support Abramson?
Something is seriously wrong with that count because there were 62 votes in the third round with only 44 ballots cast. First and second rounds add up to 44, but not the 3rd. Total votes thus add up to 150, not 132 (which is 3×44). And anyways, the method used is ridiculous because it just gives everyone THREE VOTES. There is no point to this. The way it should have been done is that anyone who didn’t finish in the top three gets eliminated and only their second choice votes are counted for round two. Check for majority after round two and if not, eliminate the third place candidate and repeat for round three.
Georgia also had a “bean count” at its convention in January. 3 beans per person. Results:
48 Adam Kokesh
29 Jo Jorgensen
26 Vermin Supreme
21 Dan Behrman
20 Sam Robb
Results from other candidates weren’t announced. So the LP has at 3 winners: Vermin Supreme in New Hampshire, Jacob Hornberger in Iowa, and Adam Kokesh in Georgia.

JUNK ALL the olde elitist election stuff.
Richard, the only candidate you were posting articles about is Chafee, while ignoring others. It’s pretty obvious he is your favorite.
@JB,
They used Bucklin for the first two rounds. If anyone has a majority on the first round, they are elected. If not, then the second votes are added in. This may have an advantage over IRV in that a compromise candidate won’t be eliminated due to lack of first-place votes.
The third round was by approval voting in which you can vote for as many candidates as you find acceptable.
This hybrid may have an advantage of not switching to approval unless necessary. There might also be a tendency to only “approve” of your favorite.
Chafee is notable because he is a former Senator and Governor. This is the exact same reason that the only candidates or potential candidates for the LP nomination that have been discussed in mainstream media have been Chafee and Amash. Mainstream media articles focused on candidates for alternative party nominations are noteworthy here for the attention they bring to ballot access concerns.
Jim. Where were the 5th place results announced for Georgia? I’ve only seen 4 previously.
Skylar, according to them, because he is a right wing republican, fake, phony and fraud.
Three LP “primaries” with three different results. Looks like the LP convention could go beyond 1st ballot. Fortunately, they have elimination voting on subsequent rounds, so it’s not endless. The Democrats might need something like that.
@Anonymous
Richard also posted an article when Jacob Hamburglar declared for the nomination. He’s not biased toward Chafee.
Chafee is also notable for not being a libertarian and for being a party hopper.

LOL @ Hamburglar! Hey, at least he is actually a libertarian and is actually known in the party.
There are some people running now who even I have never heard of, and I have been following this stuff closely for many years. If even I do not know who you are that is a good sign that you are obscure.
How many personality cults in the LP ???
