To vote in the second and final round, click on the name of your preferred theme(s) and donate in support. Each dollar donated counts as one vote.

These donations will be used to help cover early convention planning expenses.

The deadline for this second round of voting is noon Eastern on Tuesday, March 21, 2017.

The donations made in the first round to those 5 finalists will count towards the final tally for those same themes in the second round.

Donations towards a particular theme are not intended to be returned if that particular theme fails to win.

The 2018 Libertarian Party National Convention and associated activities will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana, on June 30 through July 3, 2018. Please save the dates on your calendar!
