If you think the Libertarian and Green Party nominees may have an impact on who wins the White House in November, you need to think again. They are merely deciding whether they can vote for the major party nominees or not. Until that changes, they will remain little more than vehicles of frustration for voters who find one or both of the major parties, and the major party presidential nominees, unacceptable. Either the voter is a Libertarian or Green, or he or she normally votes for one of the major party nominees but finds both nominees this year unacceptable. Green Party nominee Stein doesn’t do nearly as well, consistently drawing in the low-single digits.
