A Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday found that nearly half of voters would consider a third-party candidate.
The poll found that voters were split evenly: 47 percent would consider voting for a third-party candidate, while another 47 said they would not. The voters who said they would were overwhelming Independents, while the majority of Democrats and Republicans said they would not. Democrats were slightly more willing to switch their vote, with 61 percent considering it and 35 not considering it, compared to Republicans’ 57 percent and 38 percent.
