Johnson and the Libertarian party didn't even get 1% of the popular vote in 2012, so this could be seen as an encouraging increase on the way towards 5%. One might even wonder if all the people who compromised with Clinton and still ended up with Trump as a president may have learned their lesson and move towards a 3rd party in 2020. Just a few things to keep in mind.
