Update: There was a candidate for LNC Vice Chairman that we were not aware of and has been added to the list.
With last year’s controversy over current Libertarian Party Vice Chair Arvin Vohra’s comments on members of the military and his continuing trend of making controversial statements, the race for the new Vice Chairman is bound to be heated.
There are currently four candidates who have declared their intent to run: Libertarian Youth Caucus founder Trent Sommes III, Iowa Libertarian Jake Porter, Larry Sharpe for New York Policy Director Alex Merced, Indiana Activist Joe Hauptmann, and Libertarian Party Radical Caucus Treasurer Steve Scheetz.
Luke graduated from the University of Missouri with a Bachelors of Music in Music Composition and is currently pursuing his Bachelors of Music in Music Education while working as a substitute teacher in the St. Louis area. When Luke isn’t teaching, or writing music, he enjoys reading and writing on economics, politics, and libertarian philosophy. After a brief stint as a supporter for Bernie Sanders, Luke began his journey into libertarianism and was a supporter of Gary Johnson during the 2016 election. Luke joined the Libertarian Party after reading Johnson’s “Seven Principles of Good Government” and has been active ever since. Luke also contributes as a guest to Being Libertarian and as an editor for The Libertarian Coalition. Recently, Luke was asked to right for the Missouri Libertarian Party on their recent success in getting Libertarians to be Election Judges in 2016. Libertarian views on contemporary issues and criticisms of Libertarian philosophy are topics that Luke explores in his writing.
