FAQ: Who are your candidates for Governor and U.S. Senate?
Answer: The Libertarian Party of Tennessee is not fielding candidates for Governor and U.S. Senate this year. Given the current political climate, it would be very difficult for a third-party candidate to do well running for state-level offices at this time. We think we can be more effective in winning local offices first, developing candidates with a track record in their home districts, and then moving up to state-wide offices.
The following candidates for public office were formally endorsed by the LPTN in state convention on April 8th.
