The Arizona Secretary of State has posted new registration data. It shows that Libertarian registration is down to 30,150 members, which is only .69% of the state total. If it declines below two-thirds of 1%, the party will lose its qualified status. The total number of registered voters in the state is now 4,374,827, and two-thirds of 1% of that number is 29,166, so the party only has 984 more members than it needs.
Stop running commies like Chase Oliver and registration will go up.
Wouldn’t losing their party status actually increase their ability to run candidates once they petition back on due to the primary qualification laws?
Get rid of the communist national board and that’ll help too.
The problem is that to get back on the ballot would take a petition drive of 34,127 signatures, and because the turnout in November 2026 is likely to be higher than it was in 2022, the number will be even higher than 34,127. That would probably cost $200,000 and the national Libertarian Party is financially weak.
