Imagine this scenario. As expected, Hillary Clinton wins the Democratic Party’s nomination for president, and Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination. However, disaffected Republicans run a third-party candidate. In the presidential election Clinton wins a plurality but not a majority of the popular vote. (A third-party candidate would likely hurt Trump more than Clinton.) Clinton likewise wins a plurality but not a majority of votes in the Electoral College. According to the Constitution, the House of Representatives then selects the president, with each state delegation possessing one vote. In this scenario the House of Representatives is the same heavily Republican body that now sits. The third party candidate, who finished second or even third in the popular vote, becomes president of the United States. Imagine the uproar, hopefully not a violent one, that would ensue such a subversion of the popular will.
Stein and Johnson are both moving up in the polls and are on the ballot in all 50 states. If they get 15% they stay on the ballot and that is the bigger threat.
How deliciously ironic that an article written to rally the partisan troops lays out a roadmap for how we can, finally, break their stranglehold on power:

No electoral crisis.
If Johnson pulls enough electoral votes to throw the election to congress, there are enough republicans there to tip the balance to Trumpenfurher.

The popular vote is meaningless
Johnson would have to actually win states to get their electoral votes and Hillary has about a hundred electoral vote buffer over 270
No third party candidate has actually won a state since George Wallace almost 50 years ago
Why would a Republican House select a third party candidate over a Republican?
There's no GOP'er....sadness on you...How deliciously ironic that an article written to rally the partisan troops lays out a roadmap for how we can, finally, break their stranglehold on power:

Is there a Republican in the race this year? So far all I've seen is two Democrats and a Libertarian.
They'll fall in line and go party line. It's what they do.No electoral crisis.

Most of the Republicans in Congress don't want Trump.
