Apparently he will be left off the ballot due to not receiving enough votes in 5 national polls. Now I gotta ask - who is being polled here? I've never in my life been polled and I'm guessing the demographic that votes for underdogs like Johnson arnt the type that get contacted by pollsters. Now argueably I wouldnt have known about Gary if I hadnt gone looking for him..so he needs to step up the advertising or something. But the system seems totally rigged if the guy ends up not being on the ballot because 5 media corporations only poll certain populations. And yes I'm registered to vote. My Tin foil hat tells me that the pollsters get their contact numbers from the political parties..which would seriously disenfranchise non members if these polls determine who gets on the ballet.

I love this entree. It is smart, witty, and well thought out.
I'm proud of this blog space.
Good luck with Gary Johnson.
You should write an opinion piece for his states newspaper.
