Resultater for Det Libertarianske Partis kandidater ved præsidentvalgene fra 1972 til 2020.

Den første libertariansk kandidat, John Hospers, fik 1 valgmandsstemme i 1972 da Roger MacBride, en troløs republikansk valgmand fra Virginia stemte på den libertarianske kandidat i stedet for Richard Nixon. Hans stemme på Tonie Nathan som vicepræsident var den første stemme afgivet på en kvinde nogen sinde i Valgmandskollegiet i et amerikansk præsidentvalg.[7] MacBride blev selv den libertarianske præsidentkandidat i 1976. Det var sidste gang partiet fik en valgmandsstemme indtil 2016 hvor den troløse republikanske valgmand fra Texas Bill Greene stemte på Ron Paul i stedet for Donald Trump.[8]

Ved præsidentvalget i USA 2016 fik Gary Johnson og vicepræsidentkandidat Bill Weld en rekordstor andel af stemmerne på 3,29 % (4.489.233 stemmer) på landsplan[9] og 9,34 % i New Mexico hvor Johnson tidligere havde været guvernør. Ved valget i 2016 havde Johnson og videpræsidentkandidat Jim Gray fået 1.275.821 stemmer (1 %).[10]

Roger MacBride 1976 Campaign.jpg
Roger Lea MacBride (1929–1995) was an American lawyer, politician and television producer, best known for developing the Little House on the Prairie franchise and for running for president of the United States as the Libertarian Party nominee in the 1976 election. In this photo, MacBride tours the Prudhoe Bay Oil Field during his campaign. It would appear that MacBride and his young companion are looking on in awe at active operations occuring at that moment.
