2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries

The 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries and caucuses will be a series of electoral contests to indicate non-binding preferences for the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate in the 2024 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 2024 Libertarian National Convention, which is scheduled to take place from May 24 to 26, 2024 in Washington, D.C.[1][2]
