Six Candidates for President at Libertarian Convention Qualify to be Nominated

On Saturday, May 23, the virtual Libertarian national convention process determined that six individuals are eligible to be placed in nomination. The six candidates, and the number of tokens each received, are: Jacob Hornberger 218, Jo Jorgensen 193, Vermin Supreme 103, John Monds 95, Jim Gray 89, and Adam Kokesh 58.

Congressman Justin Amash said on May 23 that he is honored that some delegates want to draft him, but that he would not accept the presidential nomination even if the convention were to draft him.

Individuals who did not meet the threshold, but who got at least one vote, are: Arvin Vohra 27, Justin Amash 27, Dan Behrman 18, Sam Robb 14, Kim Huff 11, Sorinne Ardeleanu 9, Spike Cohen 7, Nicholas Sarwark 6, Ken Armstrong 5, Larry Sharpe 4, NOTA 4, Souraya Faas 2, Cherise Norton 2. “NOTA” means “none of the above.” If NOTA were the choice of the convention, the party would have chosen not to run anyone for President.

Six Candidates for President at Libertarian Convention Qualify to be Nominated — 75 Comments

  1. If Hornberger doesn’t win by the 2nd ballot it will be Jorgensen.

  2. At least NOOO Elephant under-cover agents ???

    Nov 2020 predictions ???

    H X pct

    J Z pct

    Both under 5 pct ???
    —–
    In LP platform –

    PR
    APPV
    TOTSOP ???

    or more complaining about the statist results by A-Z subject of the rotted statist systems ???

  3. Vermin Supreme AKA Scott Taylor is probably an undercover agent with a Mossad running mate Cohen turning the party into a joke.

  4. Kim Huff should read Kim Ruff, Spike Owen should read Spike Cohen. Both have endorsed Vermin Supreme and Mr. Cohen is Mr. Supreme’s running mate.

  5. It would seem to me that if Jorgensen or Hornberger wins, there is a good chance one of the presidential candidates who did not win would win the VP nomination. It seems unlikely that the runningmate of a losing presidential candidate would be selected. The chair might also win it.

  6. Dan Behrman has announced that while he is endorsing Vermin Supreme for the LP nomination, he will continue his presidential campaign as an independent.

  7. Cynthia McKinney is a Libertarian and Jesse Ventura is a Green. What a world!

  8. Hornberger can’t get his shit together and delays the whole convention.

  9. Hornberger plays YouTube in background and talks to it before turning it off.

  10. These elections are no good. They used a one-party system at California State L.P. convention for introducing and debates so outsiders got snuffed out.

    Then this nominating is also a one-party system. Two tokens per delegate.

    My team is trying to bring the three-party system. But we got snuffed out by the L.P. party bosses using a one-party system.

  11. The radical caucus gave you an F. They don’t think you’re sufficiently libertarian.

  12. Hornberger begins crying and endorses possible Mossad agent Spike Cohen for VP.

  13. Gray puts up some child to speak. He can’t even speak correctly. Must have some speech disorder.

  14. Guy who looks like Bill Nye the science guy speaks next followed by a woman from Texas. She looks decent in her thumbnail.

  15. Gary Johnson speaks for Gray. Sounds like his usual goofy self.

  16. Other than the child, Gray-Sharpe has done a pretty good job in presentation.

  17. Gray has a “gold states” plan to win the smallest five states.

    If I wanted the LP to do well I’d support Gray but he’s too good for this party and they’ll probably reject him.

  18. Avens is one of those girls who thinks she’s hot but she really isn’t.

  19. You’re not in on the joke, you’re the butt of the joke.

  20. Wow. This guy is a real weirdo. He’s running away a lot of delegates I’m sure.

  21. Milnes says this Spike Cohen guy is a possible Mossad agent.

  22. Scott Taylor speaks over his time. Only candidate who did that.

    Voting is now occurring.

    The part of me that likes the LP wants Gray to be nominated. The part of me that hates the LP wants Vermin Supreme to be nominated.

  23. If most of the above commentators are Libertarians, it is obviously the party of douchebags.

  24. Faas endorses Supreme as long as he doesn’t wear the mask. In other words, she wants Scott Taylor as the nominee.

  25. “If most of the above commentators are Libertarians, it is obviously the party of douchebags.”

    Mostly non-libertarian trolling.

  26. Not trolling. Honest live blogging just like you’re doing at IPR.

  27. Karen Ann Harlos has the moody annoying voice in the world.

  28. Karen Ann Harlos has the most annoying voice in the world.

  29. Avens O’Brien is Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!
    Endorses Vermin because she thinks the LP can’t win.
    What about Top Ten/Six Plus PLAS?
    Admits to porking Judd Weiss.

  30. This SC idiot forcing his kid to be a Libertarian party member.

  31. Karen puts up a chart to read and it’s way too small of course.

  32. Jorgensen receives the most votes. Kokesh eliminated on first ballot.

  33. President first ballot:

    Jorgensen 248

    Hornberger 236

    Supreme 171

    Monds 147

    Gray 98

    Kokesh 77

    NOTA 8

    Write-Ins 31 (Amash 17, Sarwark 5, Vohra 3, Stossel 1, Chafee 1, Ardeleanu 1, Boogie 1, Snowden 1)
    11

  34. Hearing people defecate and/or piss on the feed is quite disgusting.

  35. 32 Write-ins on first ballot. There were two (2) for Snowden. Thus, Write-ins, NOTA, and Kokesh = 117 to likely be divided among the remaining top 5. This is clearly going to go five rounds, but round four will be most interesting.
