He is a candidate for the Libertarian presidential nomination in the 2024 United States presidential election.[2]
In the 2022 Georgia special United States Senate election, Oliver received over 2% of the popular vote, possibly acting as a spoiler candidate and forcing the Georgia senate race into a run-off.[3][4][5][6]
Oliver is openly gay and resides in the suburbs of Atlanta.[7]
