Notable candidates include John Monds's run for governor in 2010 and John Monds, Public Service Commission District 1 – the first Libertarian in the country to receive more than 1 Million votes (1,076,780 or 33.4%).
Even more remarkably, the Libertarian party achieved this growth while consistently adhering to a new ideological creed—"libertarianism"—thus bringing to the American political scene for the first time in a century a party interested in principle rather than in merely gaining jobs and money at the public trough.
