Libertarian Party not 3rd largest party in US Per Voter Registration
Your source is a unverified claim from a obviously partisan candidate. The existing source is from Richard Winger publisher and editor of Ballot Access News he is nationally recognized expert on third party issues including registration - the existing source table laying out the number of registered voters per party per state with totals presented at the bottom of the page. Numbers do not lie, in terms of voter affiliation the LP is not America's third largest political party. Highground79 (talk) 07:33, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

There's nothing to discuss, in terms of voter registration the LP is not the 3rd largest political party that's a fact. Everything else is just opinion and opinion has not place in a Wiki article. The source you sited clearly stated that the candidate not the paper said the LP was the third largest party - and obviously he has a strong bias, and presented no facts. Articles are to be presented from a neutral point of view. Highground79 (talk) 07:45, 3 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, I found a reliable source which says LP is the third largest political party. --Galactic Traveller (talk) 02:18, 6 September 2010 (UTC)


 * The source is about a press release where the Libertarian Party calls itself America’s third-largest party. It looks like the source copied the claim from the press release without saying it directly. PrimeHunter (talk) 02:32, 6 September 2010 (UTC)


 * But we don't remove a source based on assertion like "It looks like the source copied the claim from the press release without saying it directly". If the information is published in a third party source, then it is ok, per WP:SOURCE. I have another reference  --Galactic Traveller (talk) 02:37, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
