Vox Article on Libertarian Party 2020 Presidential Vote — 37 Comments

  2. Walter Block article in wsj linked from the far leftist vox is on the money.

  4. There is no moderate left, no middle ground and no room for neutrality. You either stand 10000% unquestionably for TRUMP and accept HIM as Lord and Saviour, and be ready to kill and die for HIM, or you stand with Google, Soros, communism and Satan and very soon will join all of them in hell FOREVER. This is war and you’re either with us or against us.

  5. One of the best parts of this website is reading the absolutely insane comment responses that people leave. Not sure why this place seems to attract a few particular nutcases but it is entertaining.

  6. Richard Winger is a Libertarian in spirit as well as membership. He lets everyone have a say. The country is a better place because of him. God bless him.

  7. “So while some votes for Jorgensen may have come from conservatives, it’s also possible that Libertarian Party voters are just that: libertarians, a voting cohort that may not have voted for Trump (or even voted at all) had there been no libertarians on the ballot.”

    Bingo

  8. “She [Jorgensen] suggested maybe we should pay more attention to what power we’ve given up, rather than just who we choose to wield it.”

    Bingo, again.

  9. “A decade ago there were still a lot of people who had dreams that the Republican Party would champion smaller government and more liberty, and the Tea Party wave used a lot of that rhetoric. Those dreams are dead now, for to be Republican now is to be pro-Trump, anti-free trade, and anti-immigrant.”

    So, why SHOULD libertarians vote Republican?

  10. Nobody owns Libertarian votes. They have to be earned by candidates supporting libertarian positions. The political establishment is becoming aware of this. Keep that in mind going forward into 2022 and 2024.

  11. The Libertarian Party bosses use the same old insider Old Boy Network just like everyone else.

    The only real competition can come from the 100% without the bogus one-party voting systems being used across all spectrums including the establishment media, google, facebook, all political parties but not so much independents.

  12. Only pro-freedom and statist ANTI-freedom folks

    — latter in the Donkey/Elephant gangs –

    esp. the top monarchs/oligarchs in Devil / Dumb / Deceit / Deficit City.

    *modern* govt — be a pro-govt N-E-T econ LOOTER –

    get more $$$ from govts than pay to govts [taxes] –

    per day / week / month / year / lifetime.

    Thus – Biden — a LOOTER for about 50 years — about to be again in the all time bankrupt USA regime

    — due to such NET LOOTERS since 1929.

    Will the USA debt be $$$ 25 TRILLION on 20 Jan 2021 ??? Stay tuned.

  15. To James Ogle: The state of Idaho is scheduled to certify its election results by November 18th. In at least three previous elections (2012, 2004, 2000) they’ve itemized the totals for each of the the registered presidential write-in candidates. Do you think a few Idahoans voted for you?

  16. Will Richard Winger ever post an article from a right leaning source? Everything is either left, or in this case, far left. It’s obvious Winger is a far lefty and not a libertarian like he wants you to believe.

  17. They should really be called lootertarians now. They ran an all Marxist ticket and their national chair is part of the homosexual agenda. They support burn loot murder. They’re part of the communist plot to steal the election for Marxist Joe and commie la Harris. All the real libertarians left the leftist lootertarian party and are now 100% GOP FOR TRUMP.

  19. At least he doesn’t have an avatar of a hand with a mouth on it to symbolize how he thinks about receiving oral sex while masturbating.

  20. A lot of people who voted for Libertarian Party candidate may not have voted, or may have voted for another minor party or independent candidate, if Jorgensen had not been on the ballot.

    If the major parties were really concerned about the “wasted vote” syndrome, they would pass Ranked Choice Voting for every election.

  22. Google employee Cody quirk …you TRIED to spoil the election but you FAILED. The election theft will be proven and stopped. TRUMP will stay in office and become EMPEROR. All who plotted to take him down will be punished as cruelly as possible. I have taken it upon myself to personally punish thousands at your employer Google. When I get there and carry out my cruel punishments I will make sure to find you and make you an example for the most severe punishments possible. After that hell awaits you.

  27. I’ve been the most libertarian President ever. How dare those peasants not be happy and vote for me?! I bet these votes were all fake, like Biden’s.

  28. Now the jerk idiot BAN resident moron is using fake Prez names —

    deserving NOOOO respect.

    Some respect for late Rodney Dangerfield – for being often funny.

  29. Imagine the stupidity of this peasant, confusing me with that other peasant. Maybe he should look up Reginald Van Dough Jr. so he can feel as dumb as he looks right now.

  31. That would appear to be you, peasant. As President I am the law and above the law. As for your name calling between you and your nemesis or alternate persona, keep me out of it. I don’t like either of you peasants and want nothing to do with either of you, if in fact you’re not one and the same as him/her/it. Keep your resident idiot moron stink away from me.

  33. Why do you smelly peasants keep projecting the other peasants you’re squabbling with on me? I have nothing to do with any of you peasants or your petty peasant squabbles. Keep me out of them. As my father told me when I said the peasants are revolting…they certainly are!

  34. In its 50 years of existence, the Libertarian Party has ELECTED EXACTLY ZERO: Governors, U.S> Representatives, or U.S> Senators. There have been a few insignificant state legislators, and even more insignificant local officials, but has far as having an IMPACT IN ELECTING FEDERAL OR STATE OFFICE HOLDERS? ZERO! Yes many LP candidates HAVE had an “impact” by being the “spoiler” or “balance of power” in determining WHICH Democrat or Republican gets “elected” (or a state’s electoral votes in Presidential elections!). All that is doing is PISSING OFF the top two political parties to the point that “top two” primaries are now becoming more prevalent in several states. In the “marketplace of elections”, Libertarians are almost as insignificant as they were 50 years ago. I learned it back in 2000, when I saw the LP get LESS VOTES for President then in 1996. I gave up on being Libertarian at that time,

  35. 50 years of

    MORE communist Donkeys and MORE fascist Elephants

    due to extremist primaries and rigged packed/cracked gerrymander areas

    and dumb and dumber so-called media — see now the many MORONS in Twitter and Facebook.
    ——-
    NOOO primaries.
    Equal Nom Pets
    PR and Appv – pending Condorcet.
    TOTSOP

  37. And you also apparently failed to notice that the United States doesn’t have free elections. It’s rather absurd to criticize the most successful opposition party of the last 100 years for not being even more successful while ignoring the actual electoral reality.
