When analyzing election results, the Libertarian Party and other elements of the movement focus usually on the LP's current political star in order to prove that the libertarian cause is advancing.Examples of this policy can be seen in the euphoria surrounding Hospers' electoral vote in 1972; MacBride's showing and the LP's "Third Largest Party" status in 1976; and Ed Clark's 377,960 votes for California Governor in 1978.
