Libertarian Party of New Hampshire Endorses Trump Over Own Candidate

The endorsement reflects a strategic decision to support Trump as the best option for libertarians despite ideological differences.

The Libertarian Party of New Hampshire has endorsed Donald Trump, rejecting their presidential candidate, Chase Oliver.
The endorsement was described as difficult but necessary to preserve the state's libertarian values against progressive influences.
Trump's promises, such as commuting Ross Ulbricht's sentence and reducing federal government size, were key factors in the decision.
The party criticized Oliver for his progressive stances and expressed skepticism about Trump's promises but saw him as a preferable alternative to Democrats.
New Hampshire's electoral votes could be crucial in a close election, making this endorsement potentially significant.
