Paul, Ventura, Thompson, Barrett: Third Party Coalition?
"He added prominent third-party individuals like Jesse Ventura, Ed Thompson, Ron Paul and himself are considering forming a new moderate Libertarian party that better represents their political ideologies."

Libertarians Again Top 1,000,000 Votes for U.S. House
November 5th, 2008 The Libertarian Party candidates for U.S. House will have polled over 1,000,000 votes, as soon as all the votes are counted. Preliminary figures are at 990,000, and perhaps 8% of all the votes (mostly absentees and provisionals) have not yet been counted.
The Libertarian Party also exceeded 1,000,000 for U.S. House in 2000, 2002, and 2004. It is the only minor party that has polled as many as 1,000,000 votes for U.S. House since 1914, when the Progressive Party polled 1,117,939 votes. Thanks to Greg Kaza for the 2008 calculation.
