Poll shows Gary Johnson at 10.6% in Ohio

Does Libertarian Party presidential candidate Gary Johnson really have more than 10 percent support in the critical battleground state of Ohio? Or is the number just a mirage?

While most political observers and pollsters obsess about the numbers between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, a poll last week by an organization called Gravis Marketing showed the former two-term governor of New Mexico picking up support of 10.6 percent of 594 likely voters who answered a telephone survey between September 21-22.

However, any conservative votes Johnson can cipher away from Robme can only help us. Nader did it to us in Florida twelve years ago.

that far fewer than 10.6% of Ohioans have even *heard* of Gary Johnson - much less intend to vote for him. Nice fantasy, though. A quixotic libertarian bid for prez siphoning votes away from RawMoney would be sublime. Unfortunate that the poll has no basis in reality.
