Libertarians Nominate Former Republican Governor
The Libertarian Party ticket is set and hoping to attract new voters who don’t like who Republicans and Democrats are offering.
FOX’s Jared Halpern has more from Washington:
Former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson will again be the official Libertarian Party nominee for President, nominated at the party’s convention in Florida over the weekend at a time the third-party is picking up some new interest:
(Johnson) “Really, Libertarians, the best of both parties or at least what the parties are supposed to be about.”
Libertarians also nominated former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld as Johnson’s running mate. Both are former Republicans who led Democrat-leaning states.
A recent FOX News poll shows Johnson winning about ten percent of the vote in a three-way race with Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton.
