Nah they are socially conservative af now. Dare I say alt-lite.

Used to be socially liberal and hands off and I'd say that the voter base largely still is but their presidential nominees generally are former republicans so in that respect you are probably correct

"Socially liberal but economically conservative" is a term people use who don't realize that all political action or inaction has economic consequences, or privately condone those consequences. It's the kind of thing you say when you support banks targeting black churches for subprime mortgage loans and oppose any kind of bank regulation, but don't want people to think you're racist so you "personally disagree with it." Libertarianism is just an deference to the market in all issues, despite the fact that almost all market capital is held by whites who obtained it during a time when nonwhites weren't paid for their labor and did not benefit from any of the wealth redistribution mechanisms that existed after WWII.

This is a deep red county in Tenessee.... he alone got more votes than every candidate in the Democratic primary combined. It's pretty much a given he won... barring some controversy happening like Roy Moore in Alabama

Not necessarily.

Gary Johnson ran on ending the prison industrial complex/War on Drugs and legalizing pot in 2012.

There's 2 different types of libertarians.

You have those who are kind of anti government big business types who embrace the cultural right

And then you have those who want to smoke weed, play guitar and just want the government out of people's business.

UPDATE: After a recount along with provisional ballots, Glenn won by 22 votes and is now the nominee for the GOP. Considering Knoxville is about as red as you can get that it practically deserves it's own color, he will more than likely be the new Mayor (barring some controversy.)
