Yup.

It's been the largest third party by far the last few elections. The media doesn't report it but the libertarians polled almost 3% in the Romney and Obama election. They went from being on 2 state ballots in 1972 to all 50 ballots in 2018. It's a broad party from Gary Johnson a very liberal leaning libertarian to Ron Paul the most extreme conservative libertarian. 

Problem is while many people agree with lots of their positions the national elections it's still viewed as a wasted vote or protest vote at best. 

It's growing but painfully slow and still pretty underound and without strong organization at the top. The convention in Orlando is a joke .

^^ This, I believe is the largest issue. There is just not a large or strong organization to push it to equal footing as the Dems and Rep. Most Americans are just unaware that a third party vote is an option. Sadly, votes go where they money goes.
