Gleaned mostly from the Libertarian Party’s own updating
page of news of note from election night, herewith the governor
races in which the L.P. is now breaking 2 percent. (There aren’t
many.):
•Dan Feliciano of Vermont is very much beating the
spread at
4.36 percent in a race currently un-called but with
Democrat Peter Shumlin with a narrow lead. This could be
a real chance for GOPers to get mad at Libertarians, whether for
justified reasons or not. (This is one the L.P’s own page hadn’t
caught.)
•Andrew Wyllie in Florida, beating the spread handily in a race
where Republican Rick Scott won, so this is an interesting data
point for the “who do L.P. candidates possibly divert votes from?”
debate,
at 3.76 percent.
•Keen Umbehr in Kansas is beating the spread handily, again in a
race with a Republican, Sam Brownback, winning, with
3.86 percent.
•Barry Hess in Arizona
at 3.83 percent–far better than the 2.2 percent he got running
for the same office in 2010.
•Mark Elworth in Nebraska
at 3.35 percent.
•Andrew Hunt in Georgia
at 2.44 percent.
•Dee Cozzens in
Wyoming at 2.41 percent.
