This was just the Governorships. Add to that the KY Governor’s race to the list. Bevin needed 5k votes, the Libertarian got 28k. Think gubmint will get smaller under Beshear (whose first act was to grant voting rights to felons) ?

I haven’t even listed the Senate races, Congressional races and other state races which have been spoiled by Libertarian candidates.

That's more than I would have guessed. Thanks for the info!

(Also, thanks for pointing out that Libertarians take votes from Republicans - which gives the lie to characterizations like "No Principles Hedonistic Drug Addict Party" (in this thread), which would be a platform clearly more attractive to Rat than Republican voters.)

I would think a substantial portion of the blame for Republican losses lies with Republicans who campaign in such a way as to leave tens of thousands of voters seeing less than a dime's worth of difference between them and their Rat opponent.
