A few weeks ago, Austin Petersen was playing second fiddle to Governor Gary Johnson in the race for the Libertarian Party nomination. Then, something happened: Ted Cruz dropped out of the race, and thousands of conservatives who were turned off by Donald Trump went looking for a third party alternative. Enter Petersen. The internet entrepreneur's pro life, pro religious liberty positions gave wayward conservatives the sense that there was a candidate that shared their values. Many thought of him as the ideal protest vote candidate to tell the GOP that Donald Trump didn't share their values.

They might want to hold that thought.
According to the website Liberty Conservatives, it appears that Petersen is a member of the website SugarDaddie.com. What is that? As Liberty Conservatives explains:

Photos of what is allegedly Petersen’s account on “SugarDaddie.com“, a website which aims to help attractive young women find a “sugar daddy”, have been provided by an anonymous source to Liberty Conservatives. A “sugar daddy” is defined by Urban Dictionary as “A man who provides money or other favors in exchange for sexual relations”. There are dozens of sugar daddy websites all over the internet, most of them involving younger women exchanging sex with older wealthy men in return for money and gifts. On his alleged profile, named “climbhigher”, Petersen claims a net worth of between 1-5 million dollars and an occupation in politics/government. The net worth claim strikes this author as being highly questionable (it could be true, Austin has not disclosed his finances yet as a candidate). That being said, the greater question is whether a presidential candidate has solicited a “sugar daddy” relationship, as the photo appears to show, by joining this website. If true, that is disqualifying in the minds of many voters who view this sort of conduct as childish and unserious. The “sugar daddy/sugar baby” relationship is one which is comparable to prostitution, and any candidate who was found soliciting prostitutes would be immediately disqualified from the votes of the vast majority of people.

The linked piece has photos confirming Petersen's profile.
