| Subject: Former Republican, independent, and Democrat Lincoln Chafee vies to become Libertarian candidate for president Mon Jan 06, 2020 6:31 pm | |
| Chafee, 66, registered as a Libertarian last June after moving to Wyoming, sparking speculation he would seek the party's nod to challenge President Trump in the fall. He could be joined in the race by Michigan Rep. Justin Amash, 39, who has been openly considering contesting the party's nomination after leaving the Republican Party last summer over Trump. A website linked to the Federal Election Commission filing, made late Sunday, reads, "Lincoln leads with truth." Chafee has flirted with both the major parties over the course of his political career, representing his state in the Senate as a Republican from 1999 to 2007, in the governor's mansion as an independent from 2011 to 2015, before launching a failed White House bid as a 2016 Democratic presidential candidate.
