Carla Howell (born 1955) is an American politician, small government advocate and activist.

1981

In 1981, she began work at Computervision and became the head of an engineering division in 1984.

After a decade of engineering work, she then became a consultant in the Boston area for the high-tech and health care industry.

1986

Howell earned her MBA from Babson College in Wellesley, Massachusetts in 1986.

1994

In 1994, Howell joined the Libertarian Party of Massachusetts and she was elected chair of the state party in 1997.

1998

She was the Libertarian Party of Massachusetts candidate for Massachusetts State Auditor in 1998, U.S. Senate in 2000, and Governor in 2002.

She then served in multiple leadership positions in the U.S. Libertarian Party.

She has also organized tax-cut initiative ballot measures in Massachusetts and worked for the Libertarian National Committee.

Howell is the daughter of Carla (Winsor) Howell and Charles Howell, the third of their five children.

She is a great-granddaughter of William Eustis Russell, a former Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Her father worked as a business executive and her mother engaged in volunteer work in the community.

As a result of her father's work, the family moved from Massachusetts, and Howell attended high school in Detroit and Pittsburgh, graduating from Fox Chapel High School in Pittsburgh at age 16.

Howell attended Bethany College in West Virginia for mathematics and computer science, and after graduating, became a systems engineer at Westinghouse Electric.

In 1998, she ran for Massachusetts State Auditor on the Libertarian Party ticket, and was endorsed by the Boston Herald.

She received 102,198 votes, 5.3 percent of the total, which according to the Associated Press, "guarantee[d] the party's official status."

2000

In 2000, Howell was the Libertarian candidate for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts against Edward M. Kennedy.

She ran with a "Small government is beautiful" campaign slogan, and by October, had raised almost $700,000, while the Republican candidate had raised about $20,000.

She placed third, with more than 308,000 votes, which was 12 percent of the total and one percent behind the Republican candidate.

2001

In 2001, while reporting on the Massachusetts Libertarian Party convention, Rick Klein of the Boston Globe wrote the 2000 election "made Howell the state party's standard-bearer - and something of a hero to Bay State Libertarians" and reported she received standing ovations before and after her speech to the attendees.

2002

In 2002, Howell was the Libertarian candidate for Massachusetts Governor.

At the time of her campaign, she was the chair of the Committee For Small Government.

Her campaign platform included a plan to reduce the state budget by half, support for gun rights, and a repeal of the state income tax.

She was excluded along with other minor candidates from a gubernatorial candidate debate, and their requests for an injunction were denied.

She received 23,044 votes, more than 1 percent of the total.

Howell spearheaded initiatives to repeal the Massachusetts state personal income tax in 2002 and 2008.

In 2002, she sponsored 2002 Statewide Ballot Question 1, an initiative petition to end the income tax in Massachusetts.
