The Libertarian Party of New Hampshire (LPNH) has endorsed former President Donald Trump.
“Donald Trump is officially endorsed by the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire for President,” the LPNH’s announcement read. “This was not a light decision. But we feel it is the right one for ourselves, for our children, and for the best future of a Free State of New Hampshire. Donald Trump is not a libertarian. Nonetheless, Trump is the best candidate for libertarians.”
The party listed several of the reasons behind their endorsement, including Trump’s commitment to ending the Department of Education, the possibility of ending the income tax, appointing Elon Musk, Ron Paul, and Vivek Ramaswamy to government positions, and his support of cryptocurrency and Bitcoin.
The LPNH noted that Trump did not start any new wars during his first term.
“The list of Trump promises could continue,” the party continued. “We don’t take them as a given. Trump promises much and we are skeptical of promises from politicians. However, we know for certain what the Democrat alternative is: more socialism, more censorship, more taxes, more authoritarianism.”
While the LPNH said there is a Libertarian on the ballot, Chase Oliver, the party wrote that the candidate “spends his time supporting tax-funded trans surgery for prisoners, advocating for literal murderers, and trying to kick our members out of the Libertarian Party entirely.”
“Endorsing Donald Trump is in the best interests of our ultimate goal: creating a Free New Hampshire,” the LPNH added. “As Free Staters, another term for libertarians who live in New Hampshire, our mission is to create a state so radically free that both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris look like communists.”
“We’re only part of the way there. The barbarians are at the gates. We must make sure that New Hampshire continues to repel progressives, socialists, communists, and leftists of all stripes. New Hampshire being the only red state in a blue New England helps achieve that goal,” the party wrote. “For these reasons and more, the most popular Libertarian state affiliate in the country is endorsing Donald Trump for President. Now get out there and vote!”
New Hampshire has four electoral votes.
