LNC Wins, LPNH Loses

We quote Amanda Griffith’s post on the LNC’s public list:

Gentlemen,

This is my first available time to contact those who are to be contacted, and as such I am doing so now.

After deliberation in executive session, the Judicial Committee rose at 9:57PM on August 17, 2026 (last night) to consider the question in the matter of the disaffiliation of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire. The vote was conducted as a roll call vote.

Shall the National Committee’s revocation of affiliate party status of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire be affirmed, or shall the Judicial Committee order reinstatement of the affiliate party?

The vote was 7-0-0 to affirm the decision of the LNC.

There are no fewer than 4 written opinions of which I am aware that are in progress. All written opinions are due to be published no later than Sept 11, 2026.

There is additionally a document that is being finalized to explain the process of the appointments to the Judicial Committee, including a full history of the bylaws which enabled that process. It is not a ruling or decision, as a committee is not able to decide on its own legitimacy. The only body which can make such a determination is the appointing body, which would be a national convention body.

Thank you,

Ken Moellman
Chair, Judicial Committee

    There is another body that can decide on the legitimacy of the JC. The courts.

    Obviously, the correct decision.
    Anyone with a brain, and who read the bylaws, could see LPNH’s arguments were baseless and absurd, as confirmed by the JC’s unanimous decision.

    Jeremy Kauffman has now been kicked out of FSP and LP, but he will tell you the problem is not him, but everyone else associated with FSP and LP.
    Cry harder, Jeremy.
