This changed in November 2019, when Convention Oversight Committee Chairman Daniel Hayes rescinded Toure's invitation. Turney expects more than 900 people to attend the convention, including several hundred delegates attending remotely via audio or video access. “We wanted to look at places that could host a convention and have sufficient space for social distancing,” Sarwark said. About the Libertarian Party: The Libertarian Party was founded in 1972 and today is the third largest political party in the United States. It also will allow some delegates to attend virtually for the first time. The 2020 Libertarian National Convention was a National Convention of the Libertarian Party. “Our event will be among the first to take advantage of the newly re-opened central Florida convention business,” Turney said.

Spike Cohen is nominated on the third ballot. [9] Incumbent LNC Chair Nicholas Sarwark announced that he would not be running for a fourth term and endorsed Joe Bishop-Henchman. Both were broadcast on the Libertarian Party's YouTube channel. Hayes cited tweets posted by Toure that were perceived as being transphobic and anti-immigrant. Bishop-Henchman was also the incumbent chair of the DC Libertarian Party. [35] A total of 1,046 delegates were selected to vote at the convention. Bishop-Henchman and Smith were both incumbent at-large representatives on the committee. Libertarian national chair Nicholas Sarwark said the party is opposed to government-mandated mask orders such as the one imposed by Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings. The Republican National Convention in Jacksonville next month won’t be the first national party gathering in Florida this summer. Only candidates who received 30 or more tokens from the delegates qualified for the ballot. [37] Jim Gray, Jacob Hornberger, Jo Jorgensen, John Monds and Vermin Supreme all met this threshold and participated in the debate. [16], Delegates were required to submit nominating tokens for candidates who they wished to place on the ballot for the nomination.

Industry lobbyists are circulating a plan in Congress and at the White House that would dangle $4,000 tax breaks in front of Americans to get them to begin traveling and spending money at hotels, theme parks and other tourism businesses.

Delegates will vote for changes to the national party's platform and bylaws, on members of the Libertarian National Committee and on the party's 2020 presidential and vice-presidential nominees. [a][37], Due to the coronavirus epidemic, the balloting for the LP presidential nomination was held online, while the rest of the convention is scheduled be held in person in July. No candidate achieved the majority on the second ballot, so there was a third ballot vote. “The business proceedings will be live-streamed on the LP’s YouTube channel,” he said, “with the highlight of the convention being Dr. Jorgensen’s acceptance speech, planned for Friday, July 10 from 11:15 A.M. to 12 noon.” Full program online at, Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license. But could holding such a massive event backfire in the middle of a still-ongoing pandemic — not to mention the nationwide demonstrations against police brutality? The party is giving out 1,000 masks custom-made for the convention at a facility in Altamonte Springs, Turney said, as well as 2,000 non-branded masks.
