Elections

In 2016, the Libertarians held their first statewide primary for the US Senate.{{cite web|last1=Sago|first1=Renata|title=Libertarian Candidates Compete in Primary For the First Time in Florida History|url=http://www.wmfe.org/libertarian-candidates-compete-in-primary-for-the-first-time-in-florida-history/63370|date=29 August 2016}} The primary featured two main candidates: attorney Augustus Sol Invictus and veteran Paul Stanton. This election gained significant attention due to notable controversies and developments:

- **Augustus Sol Invictus**: Invictus garnered attention for his controversial cultural views associated with the alt-right. Additionally, reports surfaced alleging that he had been involved in a ritualistic act of sacrificing a goat and consuming its blood. These allegations led to significant controversy within the party and contributed to the resignation of then-chairman Adrian Wyllie.{{cite web|title=Augustus Sol Invictus stirs up Florida senate race with tales of sacrificing goats, drinking blood|url=http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/oct/6/augustus-sol-invictus-stirs-florida-senate-race-ta/|website=www.washingtontimes.com}}

- **Paul Stanton**: Stanton, a veteran, emerged as the other candidate in the primary. He ultimately secured victory with a substantial margin of nearly 50%.

This primary marked a significant moment in the history of the Libertarian Party, demonstrating its growth and evolving influence in statewide elections.

In 2010, the Libertarian Party of Florida (LPF) made significant strides by fielding a statewide candidate for the first time, namely Alexander Snitker, who ran for U.S. Senate.{{cite web|url=http://libertarianpoc.org/photos/alex-snitker-floridas-first-libertarian-candidate-for-us-senate-at-wftw-am-1260-23-april-2010/|title=Alex Snitker, Florida's first Libertarian Candidate for US Senate at WFTW AM 1260 23 April 2010 {{!}} Northwest Florida Libertarian Party|website=libertarianpoc.org|access-date=2016-07-15}}

In the subsequent 2012 election, the Libertarian Party of Florida fielded multiple candidates for various positions:

Calen Fretts{{cite news|url=http://www.lp.org/candidates/liberty-candidates-12/calen-fretts|title=Calen Fretts|newspaper=Libertarian Party|access-date=2016-07-15}} for Florida's 1st congressional district.

Jonathan Loesche{{cite news|url=http://www.lp.org/candidates/liberty-candidates-12/jonathan-loesche|title=Jonathan Loesche|newspaper=Libertarian Party|access-date=2016-07-15}} for the Florida House of Representatives.

Additionally, the LPF fielded several candidates for various county and municipal races across the state.

In 2012, the Libertarian Party of Florida faced legal action when Franklin Perez, the 2012 Libertarian candidate for the Florida State House of Representatives (District 28), sued the party. The lawsuit arose from the LPF's failure to refund a candidate filing fee after de-vetting Perez and removing him from the party's state website. The courts ultimately awarded Perez $620.{{cite web|url=http://www.seminolechronicle.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2013/01/24/51014482bf775 |title=Local politician sees favorable outcome in court – Seminole Chronicle |last=Gillespie |first=Ryan |date=January 23, 2013 |website=archive.is |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130903142907/http://www.seminolechronicle.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2013/01/24/51014482bf775 |archive-date=September 3, 2013 |access-date=2016-07-15 |url-status=dead }}{{cite web|url=http://www.seminolechronicle.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2012/09/06/5048a1620e9b1 |title=Libertarian candidate scorned, to sue own party – Seminole Chronicle |last=Mandigo |first=Alicia |date=September 6, 2012 |website=archive.is |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130903142836/http://www.seminolechronicle.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2012/09/06/5048a1620e9b1 |archive-date=September 3, 2013 |access-date=2016-07-15 |url-status=dead }}
