Potential Third Party and Indep. Candidates

Libertarian  |  Green  |  Constitution  |  Independent
The presence of a credible third party or independent candidate in a general election campaign makes for a much more interesting and unpredictable race.  However, third party candidates face huge barriers including unequal ballot access requirements, difficulty recruiting credible candidates, difficulty raising money, and difficulty attracting media attention.  In recent election, cycles third party nominees have typically been little known or unknown and had scant impact.  In 2012, former Gov. Gary Johnson, the Libertarian nominee, achieved just shy of one-percent of the vote.  Ross Perot did significantly affect the 1992 and 1996 campaigns.  [See also: Third Parties]
