A Critical Call to Action for Libertarians in Georgia

Will there be a Libertarian candidate for Georgia Governor in 2026?

Since 1988, when the Libertarian Party first earned its statewide ballot access in Georgia there have been 82 Libertarian candidates for statewide offices. This includes the first woman candidate for Georgia Governor, Carole Anne Rand in 1990, and many others who would never have been able to be a candidate were it not for our access to the ballot for these statewide offices.

Our ballot access is never guaranteed. Every General Election we must earn it again by surpassing a threshold of votes for any statewide candidate. For eighteen elections in a row we have done exactly that. The year 2024 will be the nineteenth General Election where we must earn our ballot access and we are faced with the most difficult situation in our history.

Due to a complex series of legal decisions, we are faced with the most difficult situation we've ever confronted. This year we will have only the Presidential race as our sole means to earn our Ballot Access, it doesn't get any more uncertain or harder. We are in uncharted waters now.

There is only one path forward, we must find all those in Georgia who describe themselves as Libertarian, and encourage them to vote LP in the November 5th General Election.

Nothing is certain, or easy, but this is within our reach. We are going to have to do our honest best, and rise to the challenge.
