"The Libertarian Party is the largest “third party” in America, by almost any means of counting. Libertarians boast 168 elected officials, which is more than every other third party combined. For reference, the Reform Party, who was listed in your article, has only nine elected officials. The Libertarian Party also has more registered voters than the Reform Party -- 182,000 vs. 124,000."
I'm sure you all know of the Reform Party because of Ross Perot fame. They, I believe, are the second largest.
