The '''Libertarian Party of New York''' was one of the first Libertarian parties to organize and run candidates in the US. It was originally named the "[[Free Libertarian Party]]" to prevent confusion with New York's Liberal Party. Its first state chair was [[Ed Clark]].
 
In [[1973]] it ran a slate of candidates in the New York City municipal elections including [[Fran Youngstein]] for mayor and [[Gary Greenburg]] for Manhattan district attorney. The LPNY has run statewide candidates regularly since [[1974]] when its candidate for governor was [[Jerome Tuccille]].
