Could it be that there is no Libertarian Party candidate yet?
"The 2016 Presidential candidates listed here are currently recognized by the Libertarian Party based on minimal criteria. No candidates are endorsed by the party, nor will be, until delegates select the party's nominee at the LP national convention on May 26-30, 2016 in Orlando, Florida."
The listed candidates are as follows:
Thomas Clements
Marc Allan Feldman
Cecil Ince
Bart Lower
Gary Johnson
Steve Kerbel
John McAfee
Darryl Perry
Austin Peterson
https://www.lp.org/candidates/presid...andidates-2016
No Jesse Ventura.... yet.
Also, the Libertarian Party conducts no primaries. They just have a convention where the "Party Elders" pick a candidate so the voters don't have a say in determining the nominee. It's a pretty fucked up and undemocratic process, just like the party itself.

Trump is the Pied Piper of Assholes and leader of his own faction filled with angry bigots and morons. In short, he is raiding the Republican base and they hate him for it. The Left has lost some to his demagoguery, but the number is negligible and for the most part, we are glad to see them go. Good riddance.

Flint Polling Places Ran Out Of Ballots, Turned Voters Away
by Kira Lerner Mar 8, 2016 6:37 pm
FLINT, MI — At least one Flint, Michigan polling location ran out of Democratic ballots on Tuesday, forcing voters to either wait over an hour for city clerks to deliver new ones or to leave their phones numbers to be called when more ballots arrived.

Does MI stand for South Carolina?

Here in Colorado, you have to register for either Dem or Repub party. Then you can only vote for that party. My brother is a democrat but registers as a republican. He feels that he can then help pick the worst GOP candidate. He voted trump BTW.

This is how the democrats and republicans prevent anyone else from running. We cannot take a chance that someone will run who will upset the apple cart.
It's our "free" society with it's fucking wonderful political system which we celebrate and embrace without protest.
