(June 9, 2016) Johnson Rising! Libertarian Party Candidate Hits 12 Percent in New Fox Poll
Reason ^ | |June 9, 2016 | Brian Doherty

The Libertarian Party's presidential candidate Gary Johnson has long insisted that the presidential debates are key to his ticket's success. And getting into the debates, through the front door anyway, requires polling at 15 percent in five (as yet unnamed) reputable national polls.

He's inching closer to that goal with today's announcement of his highest even national poll total, with 12 percent from Fox.

He was only at 10 in their last presidential poll including him in May. Since that poll, Clinton stayed the same against him and Trump with 39 percent, while Trump fell from 42 percent to 36 percent. (In Utah, Johnson's currently polling at 16 percent.)...

He’s an open borders advocate and pro-muslim.

All that’s needed to squash him is to publish his droolings.

They are all hoping he will take votes from Trump.

But he is open-borders, pro-gay-marriage, pro-abortion. Who is he more likely to take votes from?

The only way he helps Clinton is to prepare the cover story for vote fraud. That’s the only thing left for her.

The media is pushing up his poll numbers in hopes of pulling some voters from Trump.

Tried the link from the story to the poll internals. Went to another blog post and not the poll internals. Could just be me though.

The sheeple who are clueless and dislike Clinton and Trump probably would vote for him not knowing what Johnson stands for.

Johnson is this years John Anderson. RINO Republican running at double digits in early polls hurting the populist Republican candidate, only to fade out come fall but manage to ciphon off votes from dissatisfied Democrats instead.

Are you a libertarian? Why post this crap? This poll is from June 2-June 5

Please look for polls tat are meaningful

The only reason you would Johnson to reach 15% is because you are a libertarian and this is your way of not supporting Trump
