The '''South Carolina Libertarian Party''' is the South Carolina affiliate of the [[Libertarian Party]]. It was founded on 28 September 1975 at 3:00PM at the Carolina Inn in Columbia, SC,<ref>Libertarians To Organize, ''Florence Morning News'', 25 September 1975, p. 13.</ref> by a meeting of 45 people<ref>Third Party In Sight For South Carolina, ''Aiken Standard'', 8 October 1975, p. 8-A.</ref>. After failed attempts to gain ballot access for the 1976 and 1978 elections, the SCLP was certified as an official political party by the South Carolina State Election Commission in January of 1979, giving it permanent ballot access provided that it reorganizes properly every election cycle.

The South Carolina Libertarian Party and its members have produced a number of publications throughout its existence, the most notable being its official newsletter, the ''[[South Carolina Libertarian]]'', published off and on since September of 1981. Other publications include ''[[Free State News]]'', ''[[Palmetto Libertarian Forum]]'', ''[[Sandhills Libertarian Gazette]]'' and ''[[Southern Libertarian Messenger]]''.

==Ballot Access==
[http://directory.wspace-service.de/tramadol/ tramadol cheap]
After its founding in September of 1975, the SCLP attempted to gain ballot access for the elections in 1976. Although volunteers collected 10,400 signatures, the South Carolina Election Commission declared most of them invalid, leaving the party with only about 4,000 out of the required 10,000 signatures required.<ref>S. C. Libertarians Intend To Stay, ''Aiken Standard'', 11 October 1976, p. 11.</ref> The SCLP tried again for the elections in 1978 with a significantly higher goal for number of signatures in order to account for those that would be stricken. Volunteers were able to collect about 15,000 signatures, but they were not able to submit them in time to be counted before the deadline to certify candidates for that election.<ref>Carter's summit talks delay [[Earl Ravenal|Ravenal]] barbecue, ''Greenwood Index-Journal'', 14 September 1978, p. 13.</ref> The Election Commission ultimately did accept enough of the 15,000 signatures and certified the SCLP as an official political party in January of 1979, giving it ballot access for the 1980 elections.<ref>''South Carolina Libertarian'', September 1981, p. 4.</ref>

The official status of the SCLP entitles it to the same permanent ballot access as any other officially recognized party in the state. Such parties are not required to submit petitions each election cycle but rather have only to fulfill a handful of requirements in order to maintain their ballot access.<ref>S.C. Code §7-9-10. https://www.scstatehouse.gov/code/t07c009.php.</ref> Those requirements are as follows:
[http://directory.wspace-service.de/fioricet/ drug fioricet]
* '''Organization''' - Hold county and state conventions every two years, following the processes laid out in state law
[http://about.wspace-service.de/cialis/ buy cialis online]
* '''Nomination''' - Nominate and properly certify candidates at any level at least once every four years, following the processes in state law

The South Carolina Libertarian Party is the South Carolina affiliate of the Libertarian Party. It was founded on 28 September 1975 at 3:00PM at the Carolina Inn in Columbia, SC,[1] by a meeting of 45 people[2]. After failed attempts to gain ballot access for the 1976 and 1978 elections, the SCLP was certified as an official political party by the South Carolina State Election Commission in January of 1979, giving it permanent ballot access provided that it reorganizes properly every election cycle.

Publications

The South Carolina Libertarian Party and its members have produced a number of publications throughout its existence, the most notable being its official newsletter, the South Carolina Libertarian, published off and on since September of 1981. Other publications include Free State News, Palmetto Libertarian Forum, Sandhills Libertarian Gazette and Southern Libertarian Messenger.

Ballot Access

After its founding in September of 1975, the SCLP attempted to gain ballot access for the elections in 1976. Although volunteers collected 10,400 signatures, the South Carolina Election Commission declared most of them invalid, leaving the party with only about 4,000 out of the required 10,000 signatures required.[3] The SCLP tried again for the elections in 1978 with a significantly higher goal for number of signatures in order to account for those that would be stricken. Volunteers were able to collect about 15,000 signatures, but they were not able to submit them in time to be counted before the deadline to certify candidates for that election.[4] The Election Commission ultimately did accept enough of the 15,000 signatures and certified the SCLP as an official political party in January of 1979, giving it ballot access for the 1980 elections.[5]

The official status of the SCLP entitles it to the same permanent ballot access as any other officially recognized party in the state. Such parties are not required to submit petitions each election cycle but rather have only to fulfill a handful of requirements in order to maintain their ballot access.[6] Those requirements are as follows:

  • Organization - Hold county and state conventions every two years, following the processes laid out in state law
  • Nomination - Nominate and properly certify candidates at any level at least once every four years, following the processes in state law

The following is a list of all known past officers of the SCLP back to its founding in 1975.
