The Libertarian Party: The Party of Principle

Founded in 1971, the Libertarian Party is the third-largest and fastest-growing party in the United States, and the only party that respects people as unique and responsible individuals. Libertarians oppose any government interference in people’s personal, family, and business decisions. Our guiding principle — the nonaggression principle — is that all people should be free to live their lives and pursue their interests as they see fit, as long as they impose no force or fraud on others.

The Libertarian Party platform illustrates how we would apply that nonaggression principle of “live and let live” to ongoing public policy challenges.


The Libertarian Party: Taking Action

We run candidates for office at all levels of government.

The Libertarian Party runs hundreds of candidates in every election cycle, at every level of public office.  These candidates, from a wide range of local and state positions to the U.S. presidency, each help to give individual liberty a voice.

Nationwide ballot access: We fight for voters to have a choice besides the two dominant parties.

Ballot access

Ballot access is one of the most critical functions of the national party. Every cycle, the Libertarian Party works hard to get our candidates on as many ballots across the country as we can.

We emerged from 2018 with the highest ballot access that any alternative party has achieved at this stage in the election cycle since 1914.

Our goal is for the voters of every state to see the Libertarian presidential and vice-presidential nominees on their ballot in 2024 — and beyond.
