    What are you talking about Republicans split votes with libertarianism all the time, like constantly

      Not really. Libertarian and green turnout has been down since Trump/Hillary. Apparently having two terrible candidates makes everyone a tactical voter.

        Can’t tell if you were talking about Clinton and Trump or Johnson and Stein. Trump and Stein were the worst two. I’m not convinced shes not a literal Russian plant, and if not she’s a useful idiot for sure. Johnson wasn’t even as good as his running mate, but that party is a joke anyway.

        I don’t understand what you mean, we recently saw some of the biggest percentages for libertarians, like the last president vote in 2020, or even 2016, I recall like 3% PR something. Basically the biggest weve seen in a while. I think Democrats are way more likely to not split. Most conservatives I know say they’d vote libertarian if it didn’t feel like a throw away vote too
