If so, in what year? And will we see a shift toward a third party system?

Sure, they've elected people at the state and local level and will probably continue to do so.

Oh, you mean a Presidential election?

Big L Libertarians? lolno. The two-party system ain't going anywhere in the foreseeable future.

Small l libertarians? Maybe. Probably not for a while, but it's possible if unlikely.

There's only been one sorta-example of a third party going on to win a presidential election, which is the Republican Party, who were founded while the Whigs were collapsing. I certainly don't expect the Libertarians to be the second example.

Presidential? No. America is not that crazy, even after Trump.
