History
The Mesa County Libertarians have existed in several separate periods. The latest iteration was founded by Marc Montoni in 2016, who called the first "Mesa Libertarians Social" at the Rockslide Brewery in the spring of 2016, prior to Montoni's ultimate move to the area in November 2016. The group has continued meeting fairly consistently to the current day (2025). It was formally organized as an LPCO official affiliate in 2021, with robust assistance from Robert Ballard, Rayne Gardner, and a colorful cast of other characters. The group held its first official meeting in early 2021 and elected officers for the first time.
Various special events were hosted, including floats at the July 4th parades two years in a row; a debate/forum for School Board candidates in 2021, hosting a taxpayer-funded group to allow them to explain why taxpayer funds had to be used for recreation, and other activities.
