4. Johnson and Weld Represent Unusual Amount of Viability
The Johnson-Weld ticket is the first pair of governors on any presidential ticket since 1948. It is difficult to pinpoint a more qualified third-party ticket in American history (or at least in the modern era). While third-parties often select mere “activists” or other seeimingly un-serious candidates, the Libertarians do not suffer from this defect. Additionally, the Libertarian ticket is on pace to appear on all fifty state ballots, the only “non-major” party to do so. These facts point to a campaign perhaps more serious than any other which a third-party has offered in 2016 or in any election in recent memory.
