As of Tuesday night, 82% of 28,000 respondents reported that they are considering voting for Libertarian Party presidential nominee Jo Jorgensen. This demonstrates that many are not satisfied with the options from the two major parties, and that what once seemed a giveaway now has some hope.
The Libertarian ticket seemed to mostly be for maintaining this election cycle, but with continued dislike of incumbent Donald Trump and the multiple gaffs by Democratic nominee Joe Biden, a third party candidate could make a considerable dent this year. Incumbent presidents tend to win their reelections, only 10 presidents being the exception, but Trump has steadily maintained a disapproval rating of over 50%, and Biden has consistently had unfavorable ratings.
Hopefully, this early success marks the beginning of continued consideration for the Libertarian ticket.
