Sarwark (born August 27, 1979)[2] is the 19th and current chairman of the Libertarian National Committee (LNC), the executive body of the Libertarian Party (LP) of the United States. Prior to his election to that position in 2014,[3] he served on several of the LP's national committees, as well as chair of the Libertarian Party of Maryland, and as vice chair of the Libertarian Party of Colorado.[4] Sarwark was a candidate for Mayor of Phoenix in that city's 2018 mayoral election. He finished fourth with 10.5 per cent of the votes. Early life and education{{Unsourced|section|date=November 2018}}Sarwark was born on August 27, 1979 in Phoenix, Arizona. He attended classes at community college while still attending high school. He graduated from Washington Adventist University in 1998 and joined the Libertarian Party in 1999. Sarwark received his Juris Doctor from American University’s Washington College of Law in 2008 cum laude. CareerSarwark was elected as Libertarian National Committee chair by the delegates of the 2014 Libertarian National Convention in Columbus, Ohio on June 29, 2014, defeating incumbent chairman Geoff Neale who had served two non-consecutive terms as chair of the LNC.[3] He was re-elected as chairman of the Libertarian National Committee at the Libertarian National Convention in 2016 and again in 2018. He was a deputy public defender in the state of Colorado. He is also a businessman with experience in computer consulting and sales.[4] Personal lifeSarwark formerly resided in Denver, with his wife and three children,[4] where he served as vice chair of the Colorado Libertarian Party.[5] Before that, he lived in Maryland, where he served as chair of the Libertarian Party of Maryland.[5] He and his family moved to Phoenix, Arizona, his hometown, in 2014.[6] Sarwark is vice president of his family's used-car dealership.[7][8] ControversiesFeud with Mises InstituteSarwark faced criticism in August 2017 when he attacked the Ludwig von Mises Institute and Tom Woods on Twitter for reviving Murray Rothbard's strategy to rally the populist and anti-establishment Right behind paleolibertarianism, an anarcho-capitalist movement aimed at preserving traditionally Western, European-American culture.[9] Sarwark also criticized Woods and the Mises Institute for failing to dissociate from and denounce the support of far-right individuals, especially neo-Nazis, after a fatal white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.[10] Stratfor conspiracyIn March 2018, the Free Thought Project published an article[11] stating that they received a tip that Nicholas Sarwark's name appeared in a list of Stratfor's clients published by Wikileaks in 2011. It was confirmed that the address listed was one of Sarwark's family owned businesses and insinuated this proved that Sarwark had a relationship with Stratfor either as a client or informant. Sarwark stated[12] that "The Excel spreadsheet is a list of gift memberships to Stratfor’s email newsletter. My brother-in-law bought me a one-year gift subscription for Christmas in 2008. I did not renew after it expired," which some Libertarians felt was not truthful.{{Citation needed|date=November 2018}} Reporting[13] by the Libertarian Vindicator showed that Sarwark's statement lined up with Stratfor's statement[14] in 2011 that what was acquired in the hack was a list of subscribers and not clients and an article[15] by The Atlantic stated that Stratfor's appearance as a "shadow CIA" was good marketing and is not an accurate label.
