Scott Avery Boman (born April 14, 1962)[3] is an American Libertarian politician from Michigan. He has consistently earned among the top votes of any third-party candidate in every Michigan election from 2000 through 2018.[4] He was chair of the Libertarian Party of Michigan in 2006. [5] Described by MIRS as a Libertarian Party standard-bearer,[6][note 1] he has been a candidate in every state-wide partisan election since 1994,[3][7] until successfully running for the Detroit office of Community Advisory Council (district 4) in 2020.[8]

He became the second Libertarian to be endorsed by The Detroit News when he competed in the 1997 Detroit City Council general election on the non-partisan ballot.[9] He was also the only Lieutenant Governor candidate to support the successful Michigan Civil Rights Initiative[10] as the running mate of Gregory Creswell in the 2006 Michigan gubernatorial election.[11]

Boman moved the Libertarian Party of Michigan from fifth to third place on the 2012 and 2014 general election ballots, by placing third in the 2010 general election when he ran for Secretary of State.[12] In 2019 he created a Community Advisory Council for Detroit[13][14]

He was the Michigan Director of Our America Initiative from 2015 through 2019,[15] and served as Michigan Director of Gary Johnson's 2016 presidential campaign.[16][17]

He currently serves on the Community Advisory Council of Detroit's District 4 after being re-elected to it in 2022,[18] and has been on the Detroit Board of Zoning appeals, since being one of its first at-large appointees, as of February 2024.[19]
