The poll found Hagan leading Tillis 42 percent to 36 percent. Meanwhile, Libertarian candidate Sean Haugh had 9 percent support, the poll found.

Civitas also asked those surveyed who they would prefer if the only options were Tillis and Hagan, the respective Republican and Democratic nominees for Senate. Forty-seven percent said they would pick Hagan while 43 percent said they would pick Tillis.

There's your answer. Sounds like more of the 9% split for Tillis than Hagan, with undecideds going to Tillis after the LP candidate is removed.

This proves my point more than anything. If the GOP-e would put up ELECTABLE candidates, Libertarians will vote their way if they don't have a party choice of their own. Stop blaming 3rd parties for the failures of GOP-e nominees.
