The 2020 Libertarian Party presidential primaries and caucuses is a series of electoral contests to indicate non-binding preferences for the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate in the 2020 United States presidential election . These differ from the Republican or Democratic presidential primaries and caucuses in that they do not appoint delegates to represent a candidate at the party's convention to select the party's presidential nominee. The party's nominee will be chosen directly by registered delegates at the 2020 Libertarian National Convention , originally scheduled from May 21–25, 2020 in Austin, Texas but currently pending a decision following a COVID-19 related cancellation by the hotel.[ 1]
Background
The 2020 United States Presidential election will be the thirteenth contested presidential election that the Libertarian Party will participate in. The 2016 election saw the highest vote total and percentage of votes for a Libertarian presidential ticket ever, with former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson and his running mate , former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld , receiving over four million votes and 3.28% of the total vote.[ 2] During his presidential campaign in 2016, Johnson often stated that it would be his last run for the presidency.[ 3]

Campaign finance
This is an overview of the money used by each campaign as it is reported to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and released on October 15, 2019. Totals raised include loans from the candidate and transfers from other campaign committees. Some of the Libertarian candidates have not filed with the FEC, and financial data for those candidates are therefore not available.
