The Libertarian Party of New Hampshire has officially endorsed Republican candidate Donald Trump for President, even though it has its own presidential candidate, Chase Oliver.
In a statement on Tuesday, October 5, the Party said it made that difficult decision since it is in the best interest of the United States (U.S).
“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,” reads part of the statement.
The Party explained that Trump is not a libertarian but is the best candidate for libertarians.
Why New Hampshire Supports Donald Trump
Some of the reasons why the party has decided to support Trump include;
1.Promised to free Ross Ulbricht.
2.Started no new wars, a first in over three decades.
3.Pledged to end the importation of anti-liberty migrants.
4.Indicated he will appoint Elon Musk, Ron Paul, and Vivek Ramaswamy to shrink the federal government.
5.Received endorsements from the greatest libertarians in America, including Thomas Massie.
6.Committed to ending the Department of Education.
7.Endorsed Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
8.Flirted with ending the income tax entirely.
“The list of Trump promises could continue. We don’t take them as a given. Trump promises much and we are skeptical of promises from politicians,” added the statement.
The Libertarian Party said it cannot support Democrat Candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Additionally, the Party said it has Trump as a candidate in the ballot since he spends time doing things that align with its manifesto.
“However, we know for certain what the Democrat alternative is: more socialism, more censorship, more taxes, more authoritarianism,” the Party said.

Why the Party Rejects Oliver
The Party has accused Chase Oliver of spending 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.
For this reason, the Party said it does not support Oliver and opted for Trump for the interest of its goals and agenda.
“There is, technically, a Libertarian on the ballot. We cannot support him, and he cannot win. Endorsing Donald Trump is in the best interests of our ultimate goal: creating a Free New Hampshire,” reads another part of the statement.

Future Goals & Mission
Further, the Party explained that its mission is to create a state so radically free that both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris look like communists.
The Party said it is only part of the way there while the barbarians are already at the gates.
The party said its members must make sure that New Hampshire continues to repel progressives, socialists, communists, and leftists of all stripes.
It stated that it is the only Party supporting Republicans in state dominated by Democrat and urged Americans to turn out and vote for Trump.
“New Hampshire, being the only red state in a blue New England helps achieve that goal. 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!” the statement reads.
