Third-party support surging

[MickeyW]

Voters now confronted with the choice between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are making something abundantly clear: they want another option.

Surveys over the last six weeks have found a steady but noticeable jump in support for third-party candidates. The biggest beneficiary has been Libertarian Gary Johnson, who has shot up from 4.5 percent to 7.2 percent in RealClearPolitics polling averages. Green Party candidate Jill Stein has also seen an uptick since June — from 2.5 percent to 3.5 percent.

Be sure and let me know if Johnson gets up to 25% and then I'll take some notice. :coffeepap:

Johnson really might. Stein has no shot.

It's not what they make in terms of winning (they won't), but how they throw the election for one candidate or the other.

A'la Ralph Nader in 2K.

I don't care how much support each minor party candidate gets but I'd like it to be enough that whichever Democrat is elected has less than 35% of the votes cast.
