What Morning Consult is claiming, "Most Voters Who Went Third Party in 2016 Are Backing Biden Over Trump This Year"

I don't buy it. Gary Johnson pulled in record votes for the Libertarians in an unsure election. Many voters that lean conservative or have libertarian leanings voted for Johnson in an unsure election. I don't see how they don't vote for Trump with his record and that Johnson isn't on the ballot. That's why New Mexico will go for Trump this time around.

Also, this line from the article..."Joe Biden leads the president by 32 points among likely voters who supported “someone else” in 2016". Talk about pure fucking nonsense. They pulled that number out of their ass.

Edit: I'd like to add the things that Libertarians should be happy about with Trump.

  • No new wars.
  • Mass Deregulation.
  • Pharma and Justice Reform.
  • First Step Act.
  • Several Middle East Peace Deals.
  • Booming Economy.
  • Repeal TPP and NAFTA.
  • Remove Obamacare Mandate.
  • Tax Cuts.

And I wrote in McMullin and definitely voting Trump enthusiastically this time. I probably would've voted for Trump last time if the RNC hadn't pushed McCain through in 2008. I'll be bitter about that forever.
