The real troubling issues here for the Beast is that Johnson
is included in the poll. The Green Wiener is lost in the dust. Probably the other candidate at 4%. Now only 7% are undecided. They would have to break 6-1 for Hillary for her to have a chance which she doesn't.
Remember this is a swing or battleground state according the MSM. The Trump Tsunami is building.

“The real troubling issues here for the Beast is that Johnson”

Gary Johnson peels votes away from Hillary believe it or not. He’s more of a ‘liberal’ Libertarian more heavy on the social issues than economic freedom issues. GOPe won’t be too enamored with him and I doubt he’ll have an impact on Trump once its all said and done.

While anecdotal evidence is garbage, three people I know that were ardent Obama supporters are spewing Gary Johnson nonsense in person, on social media, and probably when alone in the bathroom. Of course, they also feel they are smarter than everyone.

One real tell regarding Johnson’s impact on Trump is the media ... if Johnson had *any* impact on Trump, you’d be seeing a lot more of Johnson on TV. That’s not happening right now. That might happen a bit later in the election, but its a tell that he’s nowhere to be seen at this time.

Finally, watch the polls that state totals with and without Johnson in the results ... while there was some initial impact on Trump’s results a while ago, that’s not happening as much now.

Overall, I think Johnson’s overall impact in this election is going to be anywhere from “negligible” to “harms Clinton” when it comes to Trump. Hopefully I’m right :-).
