The North Carolina Pirate Party was formed on September 28th, 2025 by James Nguyen, a third-party activist who started getting involved in third-party politics earlier this year with a podcast called The Political Freedom Fighters. The PFF Podcast seeks to promote Third-Party and Unaffiliated voices in North Carolina to rebel against the two-party system.
During that time, the state party added some planks to the platform such as Gun Rights, Free Fitness Gyms and Community Centers, 3D Printing, a Digital Bill of Rights, Labor Unions, and ending Common Core. The party had its first official state party meeting on October 23rd at 6:30 PM EST with three official members attending the meeting. The party had a clear understanding of what it stands for and we were able to elect members to positions within the state party. This was big at a time where the national party had taken a downturn in memberships.
The rest of the history of this party prior to 2025 remains to be determined as this party apparently existed in the past.
