Luke Wenke was a dues paying member of the Libertarian party as early as October 2013. He came across a Libertarian party official north of him on a social media app after the 2012 presidential election and immediately felt like a part of the Libertarian party. Fast forward to 2018, Wenke organized and recorded several live videos with New York gubernatorial candidate [[Larry Sharpe]] in his Olean Politics group on Facebook, which achieved tens of thousands of views. Wenke also organized a “Twitter Hounds” effort on behalf of the campaign, which was a united effort of hundreds of Libertarians all at once Tweeting towards big media sources and successfully getting Libertarians on | Luke Wenke was a dues paying member of the Libertarian party as early as October 2013.

Wenke also organized a “Twitter Hounds” effort on behalf of the campaign, which was a united effort of hundreds of Libertarians all at once Tweeting towards big media sources and successfully getting Libertarians on shows such as Kennedy Nation, Joe Rogan, and The Rubin Report. In December of that same year, he was elected Chair of the Cattaraugus County Libertarian Party at the founding convention at Perkins Bakery & Restaurant in Olean (coincidentally a very early employer of Wenke’s). | ||
In 2019, Wenke made it his personal mission to make the [[Cattaraugus County Libertarian Party]] the “top performing fringe third party all across the entire United States” after noticing how well received the founding meeting for the county party had went. He made it a goal to run as many “Libertarian exclusive” candidates for local and county office as possible, having noticed that the majority of county Libertarian parties across the entire state of New York were well on their way to simply cross-endorsing Republican and/or Democratic candidates for office, thereby treating the Libertarian line like a pawn line. | In 2019, Wenke made it his personal mission to make the [[Cattaraugus County Libertarian Party]] the “top performing fringe third party all across the entire United States” after noticing how well received the founding meeting for the county party had went.
