The few that said otherwise we're fairly even, in choosing Dem/Rep.
There was a slight edge towards Rep.

So, I don't think you could count the LP percentages towards swaying that much.

I can also say that 7/8 of the people that I converted were disgusted with both candidates.
I converted well over 100, with my "Come to Gary" meetings.

It's easy to say you "would have" done something if the option wasn't there, but I think a decent amount of people would have voted against who they believed to be the lesser of two evils if it came down to it. I am not blaming them if it comes across that way (honestly not sure either was a safe choice), I am just pointing out that if you follow the votes it is interesting when comparing the margins in certain places from 2012 to last night. As I said before though, it could have simply been the disinterest in voting for either which propped up Johnson, but either way something that will be reviewed heavily in the coming months and years.
