This is their last poll right? That would be great. Going into election up 2.4.

There is not way that Johnson is going to get 6%.

It may happen, but I don't believe it will matter.

I think most of the third-party votes are in the deep blue or red states where it wouldn't make any difference if they voted for Trump or Clinton instead.

My state usually has a higher proportion of third party votes than the US, nationally. That's because it's deep red, and voters feel they can safely cast a "protest" vote.

I don't think rational voters will do so in a battleground state.

After this election, I'm going to look at the close states and see if third-party voters could have changed the result. I don't expect to find any.

I should have looked through the rest of the thread before posting it, but take a look at my post #83 above this.

Short version: I don't think third-party voters could have much effect on the election, even if they voted for Trump or Clinton -- because most of them are in deep red or blue states.

On Wednesday, I'll look through the results and see if I'm right.

The ABC poll was the most accurate last election giving Obama +3, which is what Hillary has now. I don’t think I can handle the blood bath we will see tomorrow.
