Funnily, most users (including me) thought that Robert Sarvis (L-VA) would be the most successful Libertarian candidate this cycle, but he in fact he fell short of expectations.
Also Sean High Haugh underperformed.

Sarvis had the perfect storm of machine crony D vs. social issue nut R in 2013. This year, he had businessman D vs. establishment social moderate R.
