Gary Johnson polling between 10-19% in 17 states

The Iowa poll, showing Johnson at 16%, comes from Evolving Strategies/Ballotpedia, and the poll was conducted from June 10th through the 22nd.

The New Mexico poll, with Johnson at 14%, was taken last month and comes from PPP.

The Utah poll, with Johnson at 16%, comes from Gravis. Survey USA gives Johnson 13% in Utah.

The Alaska number, with Johnson at 19%, comes from 538.com.

Other states with Johnson polling well include:
Michigan (12%)
Ohio (15% or 14%)
Arizona (10%).
Florida - Johnson 14% (Evolving Strategies poll, June 10-22)
Michigan - Johnson 14% (Evolving Strategies poll, June 10-22) [Previous poll was 12%]
Pennsylvania - Johnson 13% (Evolving Strategies poll, June 10-22)
Virginia - Johnson 11% (Evolving Strategies poll, June 10-22) [Previous poll was at 6%]
Wisconsin - Johnson 16% (Greenberg Quinlan Rosner poll ,released June 30th)
North Carolina - Johnson 10% (Evolving Strategies poll, released June 29th)
New Hampshire - Johnson 10% (Greenberg Quinlan Rosner poll ,released June 30th)
California - Johnson 10% (Field Poll, released July 5th)

Colorado - Johnson 13% (released July 13th) there. [Previous poll was at 9%]
Utah - Johnson 16%
Georgia - Johnson 11%, Aug 4th

These are great numbers, especially considering almost no money has yet been spent on the campaign. In many states, Johnson's already polling very close to 15% or 538 is estimating numbers close to 15%.

 

[FSP-Rebel]

I'd vote for him

 

[RJ Liberty]

I'm planning to vote for him, too.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

Nothing against Gary, but before any egos ballon out of proportion, these are votes are against Hillary and Trump, not necessarily for Gary.

 

[LibertyEagle]

Yay for a North American Union and world government.

 

[Working Poor]

Good I hope he will poll good enough to at least get in the debate. I am going to vote for him I just can't vote for Trump or Hillary

Yeah, gotta love that his running mate co-chaired the CFR's task force, "Building a North American Community". Real liberty stuff there.

No doubt that's true. Still, the numbers are impressive. We haven't seen third party numbers like these since the days of Perot.

doesn't matter how. a negative vote is easier to get than a vote for someone. Johnson is everyone's 1st or 2nd choice. 15% means debates. a heath crisis or legal problem could easily put him in 2nd place

So you tell me what is better about Trump or Hillary? I can't think of one thing at least Johnson won't be trying to start WWIII. Trump is considering Chrispy Cream for VP that alone is enough not to vote for him. I really almost lost it when I saw him paling around with Obama. Hillary will likely put in big gun control I feel like the only choice I have left is Johnson.

Do I get a ban for neg repping a moderator? This logic does not work well with a group that has a history of write in votes for Ron Paul.

You make a good point, Dean. Any time we vote for someone outside the two-party system, we're voting against the two-party system.

 

[William Tell]

So?

So, even if Gary managed to get 16%, the LP would most likely go back to getting 1% next cycle.

 

[69360]

In those states, it does not surprise me at all. Too bad he hasn't got above 15% nationally yet.

Maybe if Clinton or her flunkies get indicted and Trump continues to go off the reservation, enough will peel off both major parties to get Johnson into the debates. Not likely but possible. He really needs a huge donor to get the ads going online and TV to get his name out there.

Ironic that this is coming from a Trump supporter, right?

I mean, I'm not a big fan of Johnson or Weld, but this is really the pot calling the kettle black.

 

[phill4paul]

New Johnson/Weld ad just came out. It'll be interesting to see how it works. I don't think it is a bad ad. They don't attack other candidates but instead boost themselves as a team.

Not yet. But many of the state polls and 538.com's estimates look very encouraging. In 21 states, 538.com already forecasts Gary getting between 11% and 19%, based on polls and historic election data. This is before any serious money has been spent on Gary's campaign.

One huge donor (like the Kochs), or lots of small donations. But Bill Weld's done fundraising before, and he seemed confident in the CNN town hall that they could raise a serious amount of cash. He previously stated they'd need $20 million to mount a serious campaign, and he's raised big amounts before. Drew Carey is holding a big LP fundraiser on July 23rd, and Johnson has formed a joint fundraising committee with 15 state LP offices. Plus, Bill's former partners have formed a Super PAC. Will any of it matter? I don't know, but it does seem like major fundraising efforts are underway.
