He then became Libertarian nominee for the 2022 U.S. Senate election in Georgia, where he faced off against the incumbent Democratic Raphael Warnock and Republican Party challenger Herschel Walker.[3][6] Oliver participated in an October 2022 debate hosted by Georgia Public Broadcasting and debated against Warnock, as well as an empty podium representing Walker, who had declined to take part in the debate.[7] Oliver received over 2% of the popular vote in that race. Opponents contended that he was a spoiler candidate and that his votes forced the race, which was ultimately won by Warnock, into a run-off.[8]

On April 4, 2023, Oliver formally declared his candidacy for the Libertarian presidential nomination.[10][11]
Developments
Oliver's campaign was supported by the Classical Liberal Caucus (CLC) during the primaries as a counterweight to the growing influence of the Mises Caucus.[12][13] The CLC denounced efforts by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump to seek the Libertarian nomination, stating that neither align with libertarian values, and that inviting them to speak at the convention would poach voters away from the Libertarian Party.[14]
Oliver was described by The Christian Science Monitor as a potential "opening in the middle" that may deliver a reprieve to "voters unhappy with both major-party front-runners" looking for representation from a younger generation.[15]
Oliver filed to run in Oklahoma's "first Libertarian presidential primary election since the party was formally recognized in 2016". Alongside fellow Libertarian primary candidate Jacob Hornberger, Oliver achieved ballot access by collecting signatures from voters in each Congressional district.[20][21] He won the Oklahoma primary, which was held on Super Tuesday, on March 5, 2024, with 61% of the vote.[22]
On May 26, 2024, Oliver officially received the Libertarian Party's presidential nomination at the party's National Convention.[29] That same day, Mike ter Maat was selected as the Libertarian party's vice-presidential nominee and Oliver's running mate.[30]
On June 3, 2024, party chair Angela McArdle, a member of the Mises Caucus, released a video stating that she endorsed Oliver as a vehicle for Donald Trump's victory.[31][32] McArdle later said of Oliver's candidacy that he's "going to pull two to one from Biden, as opposed to Trump", and that since it would be challenging to get libertarians and right of center independents to vote for Oliver, "what makes the most sense is to lean into the spoiler effect for Joe Biden and the Democrats."[33]
Four state Libertarian parties, in Colorado, Montana, New Hampshire, and Idaho, have publicly "denounced" Oliver's nomination.[34] In the weeks following Oliver's nomination, the state Libertarian parties of Colorado and Montana formally rejected the LNC ticket, with the Colorado affiliate refusing to place him on the ballot.[35][36] In July 2024, it was announced the Libertarian Party of Colorado would place Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as its presidential nominee, rather than Oliver, whom they reportedly said was "insufficiently aligned with their principles."[37] However, the secretary of the national party submitted the required paperwork recognizing the Oliver/ter Maat slate, which the Colorado Secretary of State accepted. Kennedy will be listed on the ballot there as "Independent."[38]

The New York Times reported in October 2024 that Democratic-linked dark money groups were funding ads promoting Oliver, with the goal of eating into Donald Trump's vote share.[40]
Oliver self-identifies as pro-choice but is opposed to taxpayer funding for abortion clinics. He has supported the Hyde Amendment in his 2022 senate campaign[41] and would support legislation to make it available nationwide.
Climate change
Oliver supports letting the free market find the solution to climate change. He contends that if businesses are left alone, they will be incentivized to develop technologies that will eventually replace current carbon-based fuels.[42]
Electoral reform
Oliver is a strong supporter of ranked-choice voting in the United States, which he has said would have prevented the 2022 U.S. Senate election in Georgia from going to a run-off by allowing voters to rank their preferred candidates when they voted the first time. He has also stated that ranked-choice voting would save millions of taxpayer dollars by allowing run-offs to be instant, while ensuring that winning candidates always get above 50% of the vote.[43]Rolling Stone called him the most influential Libertarian of the year.[44]
Economy
Oliver supports free trade and opposes tariffs. He supports a balanced federal budget and reducing inflation, and has supported the idea of returning to the gold standard. He also supports ending the Federal Reserve.[45][46]
Foreign policy
Oliver promotes a non-interventionist foreign policy, stating that "It's just not a great combination when you're exporting our weapons to autocrats around the world".[47] He has criticized both Presidents Biden and Trump for their foreign policy, believing that the both of them are "authoritarians" in nature. He supports the closure of all military bases and opposes foreign aid.[48]
Oliver has additionally stated he would end all support to Israel and Ukraine, stating "While we offer moral support to our friends currently engaged with the enemy, we should not be contributing to extending the fight."[50]
Immigration
Oliver supports an "Ellis Island-style immigration" system, stating: "If you're coming here to work and be peaceful, it's not my business."[17]
Ballot access
Oliver ballot access for the 2024 presidential election, as of July 2024:
Keenan Dunham, former chair of the Horry County, South Carolina Libertarian Party and candidate for LP presidential nomination in 2016, 2020, and 2024[55][non-primary source needed]
Oliver has been criticized by some conservative pundits as being "woke".[60] His nomination has been considered polarizing within the Libertarian Party, particularly those within the Mises Caucus. It has led to state parties to refuse to add him to the ballot, such as the Libertarian Party of Colorado which tried to place instead independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.[61][62] The Libertarian Party secretary Caryn Harlos sent Certificates of Nomination to state secretaries of state herself, and Oliver gained ballot access in Colorado as well, against the wishes of state party leadership.[63]

Ålandsfrågan var en tvist mellan Sverige och Finland om de åländska öarnas politiska tillhörighet, det vill säga om Åland skulle tillhöra Finland eller Sverige.
