(Jo Jorgensen campaign)

In a day-long virtual meeting, after four ballots, the 1,035 delegates assembled for the Libertarian Party's online convention selected Jo Jorgensen as their presidential candidate.

She won with slightly over 51 percent of the vote (not every delegate voted in every round) on that fourth ballot, with 524 votes. Jacob Hornberger came in second, with nearly 28 percent of the vote. Vermin Supreme came in third, with 20 percent of the final vote.

Reason ran an interview with Jorgensen, a lecturer in psychology at Clemson who was the party's vice presidential candidate on a ticket with Harry Browne in 1996, on Thursday.

The party's voting procedure involved six candidates officially in nomination: Jorgensen, Jacob Hornberger, Vermin Supreme, John Monds, Judge James Gray, and Adam Kokesh. (Members could vote for other people if they wanted, or for none of the above, and many did.)

Jorgensen led the vote in every round, though she was only 12 votes ahead of runner-up Jacob Hornberger on the first ballot. As per the party's procedure, the lowest vote getter in each round was technically eliminated for the next one.

Kokesh was eliminated after round one, Gray after round two, and Monds after round three. Jorgensen's lead grew with each round, to 82 votes over Hornberger on the second ballot and a 126-vote lead on the third. Hornberger's support remained pretty steady, rising only to 285 from his first-round 236 votes.

Jorgensen vowed to "make this the most successful campaign we can" in a speech after the results came in. Runner-up Hornberger said in a concession speech that he "hold[s] her in the highest respect and esteem."

Joseph Bishop-Henchman, an at-large representative on the Libertarian National Committee who is running for its chairmanship this year, said in a written message on learning of her victory that "Jo Jorgensen has proven that she is a fighter, and will serve as a great contrast to the 70+ year old men she's taking on. She brought a remarkably diverse group of Libertarians together."

Jorgensen's vice presidential running mate will be selected in a second vote scheduled for tomorrow.

To Hondos delight she believes in global warming. I bet like hondos past picks she supports homos pretending to be married and cutting off little boys dicks and pretending they are girls. Maybe hondo needs to be put down, being to stupid to support American values and all. You really are on the evil side.

Your evil agenda is out in the open for all to see, a transsexual pedo dictatorship, but they're going to try and "Take the Guns First".

No way, Jose!

https://www.lp.org/news-press-releases-libertarians-say-marriage-equality- only-one-step-toward-ending-legal-discriminat/

The cunt said she supports all the planks in the libertarian party.

“Permitting couples to marry when they are of the same gender is a step in the direction of equality before the law,

“The Libertarian Party opposed the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) while it was being passed overwhelmingly in 1996

“Marriage equality is not enough, however. I’ve heard some people express concern that allowing gay marriage would send us down a slippery slope. I hope it does. We should settle for nothing less than a society in which the legal code is wiped clean of references to a person’s sexual identity or depends on how many sexual partners they have

Hondo and the cunt like faggots adopting little kids. Why is that? “1.3 Personal Relationships Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the government’s treatment of individuals, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption,

Freedom of Association One of the fundamental rights all humans have is the right to associate, or not, with whomever they choose. Immigration controls infringe on that right.

www.libertarianism.org/co...ian-argument-open-borders

Hondo and the cunt think "Freedom of Association One of the fundamental rights all humans have is the right to associate, or not, with whomever they choose. Immigration controls infringe on that right.If you want to meet your friend for coffee, you have a right to do that so long as you do not violate anyone else’s rights in the process. Crossing an international border does not harm anyone’s person or property, so it is a protected action. "
