Delegates at the state convention decided who the nominees were by
their votes. A party's executive committee should be able to express
their opinions regarding what the state party stands for. Don't you
have an opinion about which views are libertarian? If the delegates
at a convention don't think someone should be the party's nominee
for an office they under the prior system were able to vote against
that person's nomination. What is wrong with that?

deciding who they felt was a libertarian. Who are they to decide
who is libertarian, that is a decision that should be made by the
individual. I have seen too many hard working libertarian activists
turned away by the lpf. Florida is a closed primary state and
registered libertarian voters can decide which individual best
represents libertarian values in elected office, not power hungry
gatekeeper lpf executive committee members who seem to be just like
the major parties in their lust to control every aspect of
individuals within the party. The actions of the lpf is not
libertarian in the eyes of most activists that helped build the
party over the years. The determination of who is a libertarian is a
matter of an individual's opinion, not a committees.
