Fred Fogel, the Libertarian nominee for Hawaii State Senate District 2, brings decades of consistent advocacy and local roots to his candidacy. Fogel has a long history with the Libertarian Party of Hawaii, running for office multiple times across cycles, including bids for state House and Senate seats. He has participated in races dating back at least to 2010 and beyond, often self-financing to maintain independence and helping secure ballot access for the party. He heavily emphasizes reducing government intervention, promoting individual freedom, term limits, campaign finance transparency, economic reforms like lowering regulations and taxes, education improvements through vouchers and local control, and eliminating minimum wage mandates. Known for creative campaign tactics, Fogel has used life-sized cutouts of himself for signs to increase visibility.

Austin Martin, running for Hawaii House of Representatives District 3, represents a more recent but highly active generation of Libertarian leadership. At age 35 during his 2024 run, Martin is a musician, consultant, and homesteader residing in Mountain View on Hawaii Island. He is rarely seen without his ukulele, engaging communities through music, street performances, and direct volunteer service. Martin currently serves as Chairman of the Libertarian Party of Hawaii, testifies regularly on legislation, and pushes for liberty-oriented reforms. He is also the Chairman of the Hawaii chapter of Young Americans for Liberty and was elected unanimously as a regional representative on the Libertarian National Committee. In 2024, Martin received about 3.1% (276 votes) in House District 3.
