Lincoln Chafee Files to Run for President as Libertarian


Lincoln Chafee moved to Wyoming last year and joined the Libertarian Party.

The Former Democratic Presidential Candidate has filed to Run for President as a Libertarian.

The Former Governor of Rhode Island, on Sunday, Registered the “Lincoln Chafee For President” Campaign Committee with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), Online Records showed.

A Fundraising website linked to the FEC filing states, “Lincoln Leads with TRUTH” along with the phrase "Thirty Years, Zero Scandals".

Chafee has spent most of his life as a Republican. He was Nominated to his late Father's Rhode Island Senate Seat in 1999 and then was Elected as a Republican in 2000. He served only One Term, losing in 2006 to Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse, but then successfully ran for Governor of Rhode Island as an Independent in 2010, and became a Democrat in Office.

He did Not Run for Reelection but mounted a short-lived run for the Democratic Presidential Nomination in 2015.

His 2016 Bid for the Democratic Presidential Nomination, however, was marked by Anemic Poll and Fundraising Numbers.

"As you know, I have been campaigning on a platform of Prosperity Through Peace," Chafee said in announcing the End of his Campaign in October 2015. "But after much thought I have decided to end my campaign for president today. I would like to take this opportunity one last time to advocate for a chance be given to peace."
