In November the Colorado Polling Institute surveyed voters statewide. 77% of the people polled stated that a third party is needed because the Republicans and Democrats do not do an adequate job of representing the American people. Of the people who want a third party, 65% want the third party to be more moderate, 20% want the third party to be more liberal and 15% want the third party to be more conservative than the other two parties.
What does this mean? We believe that 2026 will be a good year for Libertarian candidates in Colorado as voters will be looking for better options. We encourage you to consider running for office in 2026.

October 18, 2025 - New State Chair is from Montrose.
The Libertarian Party of Colorado elected a new state board at their convention this past weekend. The new state chair is Keith Laube, a long-time moderate Libertarian who previously resided in Weld County and now lives in Montrose County. Mr. Laube brings a wealth of experience to the board. He is an entrepreneur, worked in local government, served as state chair for the Libertarian Party of Iowa, and ran for office as a Libertarian. Mr. Laube won the chair position by stating that he will be clear and professional in all communication and promising to increase the number of registered Libertarians in Colorado. After decades of growth, the number of registered Libertarians has decreased in recent years.

The Party elected Doug Jones as vice chair. Mr. Jones lives in Colorado Springs and had previously been a contract business systems analyst for the City of Boise, Idaho. Mr. Jones also brings a lot experience to the board having served as the state chair of the Libertarian Party of Utah and ran as a Libertarian for Utah’s 3rd Congressional seat.

Mr. Laube stated “During the past year the Libertarian Party of Colorado has not kept its tradition of being a strong supporter of individual rights, in particular the LGBTQ community. The party needs to get back to focusing on individual rights and liberties for all adults.”

Mr. Laube added “We need to continue to fight to keep TABOR strong and we need to work with others to make our local governments and state government more efficient to decrease the tax burden on Coloradoans.”

The Libertarian Party of Colorado is the 3rd largest political party in the state with more than 42,000 registered voters. Unaffiliated voters are the largest block of voters, consisting of approximately 51% of all registered voters in Colorado.
