Gov. Gary Johnson Polls 4.3% against Obama and Romney | Libertarian Party

Lets get that number up! I can't wait to start getting my flyers handed out and my bumper stickers on my vehicle...either way we see why the republicans are scared and are trying to get Johnson and Goode removed from the ballots but it ain't working.

He'll suck much more votes from Romney than Obama. This is excellent news. I don't think our president needs Johnson's help but hey, he's not going to turn it down.

Keep up the good work.

Thank ya! It is indeed good news. Has any 3rd party candidate gotten this much since Perot in 92? I don't think so but may be wrong. Goode is gonna hurt Romney in Virginia as well. They say Johnson may hurt Obama in Colorado. Gonna be exciting.

Virgil Goode? The Independent, turned Democrat, turned Republican, ousted by a Demcorat, and now he has turned Independent again? How can "conservatives" be so gullible?

These people are useless distractions. In the end there are only two choices and while their candidacies may favor either Romney or Obama winning, they will have had no effect on any policy, so they are nothing but useless, self indulgent distractions.

Where is Ralph Nader when you need him.............He is also relevant lol

I don't want to hear about your "Johnson".

Just sayin...

 

[Leweman]

So you're saying there's a chance.

 

[DiamondDave]

He is not anywhere close to that in normal polling that is generally used... I would be SHOCKED if he would get 2% of the national vote... and this is coming from me who will probably vote for him here at the polls in MD as more of a statement vote than anything else, for Romney has zero chance here in MD

Not too bad considering he is totally being ignored by the Main Stream Media.
I doubt that any of the news anchors at ABC, CBS or NBC even know who Gary Johnson is.

Why would angry libertarians want to syphon votes from the party closest to their wild agenda?? Anger? Some crazy hope that their guy can win? Or are the alleged libertarians nothing but a democrat dirty tricks squad?

Get it way up. It looks like the Tea Baggers are jumping ship from the GOP.

Libertarians want draconian drug laws? Libertarians want limited liability? Libertarians want government to impose law to restrict contraception?

If Gary Johnson polled at 15%, he'd be on the ballots and part of the debates. Good luck with that.

He isn't independent he is Constitution party.Conservatives are pretty gullible they chose McCain in 2008 and Romney in 2012...so yeah pretty damn gullible.

useless no,distractions sure they are they distract from the 2 party corporate whore system. There are several choices and millions of people will not vote for the 2 corporate whores. They won't win no but they will swing states to either Obama or Romney so maybe next time they will be taken seriously....ignore them at your own risk.I don't see how they are useless and self indulgent because 1. Useless means no one has any use for them and obviously people do want them as president,self indulgent means they are doing it just for themselves...why waste all the money,time,resources trying to get on the ballot in every state to print things up to get people to vote for ya etc just to be happy for yourself...you may not like them but they are here to stay whether you like that or not. They fight the corrupt election system in this country and they win....I say they deserve kudos

Really?

Then why is it that republicans keep trying to keep Johnson off ballots?

The Virginia Board of Elections today rejected a challenge by the Republican Party of Virginia to petitions submitted to place former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson on the state's ballot as the Libertarian nominee for President. The Board of Elections' decision clears the way for Johnson's name to appear on the November ballot.

That poll isn't normal polling? I use that poll all the time...hell I remember a few months ago they said he was polling as high as 13% in New Mexico that could help Romney in that state.

How in the hell is the republican party closest to libertarians? Its not...parts of it used to be but not even close now.

Obviously he doesn't understand Libertarian views...

Because there's not a goddamn dime's worth of difference between Vinnie Vitalis and Boiking.

Maybe if the GOP were about offering a serious alternative to progressive socialists, then maybe libertarians would come back.

I don't know tucks. What do they want? Their former presidential candidate became a republican for a while. That tends to indicate his alignment with republican policies.

What party would that be?

We should never define libertarian positions in terms coined by liberals or conservatives - nor as some variant of their positions. We are not fiscally conservative and socially liberal. We are libertarians, who believe in individual liberty and personal responsibility on all issues at all times. ~ Harry Browne
