According to a recent Insider Advantage poll, the Libertarian candidate for Georgia Governor, John Monds, is polling at 5% and the Libertarian Senate candidate, Chuck Donovan, is at 7%. Historically libertarian candidates in Georgia have polled better than they eventually perform.

I wonder if Monds or Donovan will get polling bumps whenever they partake in debates. Insurgent candidates, whether in major party primaries or of the indy/minor party variety, tend to get their best moments to break into the mainstream through debates.
Congratulations to Chuck Donovan and John Monds and the hard-working Libertarian Party of Georgia!
Nope. (Although we did go to different schools together.)
Is there any truth to the rumor that NewFederalist may actually be the same person as Robert Milnes? Perhaps a more right-wing alter-ego?
Hey Bob… if you combine that 13% of the vote with Teddy Roosevelt’s 27% from 1912 you can win! What a concept… let’s see… I will call it Positively Looney Arithmetic Strategy or PLAS! What do you think? 😉
Robert we do better in georgia than most states. I believe Monds got over 1 million votes in georgia last time he ran. Also it is always good to be polling higher because it makes it harded for the media not to mention you
We already know what the deal is. Mid to upper single digits rapidly decline up to election day.
The Libertarian Vote/ Cato Institute = 13%.
I met Mr. Monds at the LPUS convention in May, and I liked him. I hope he does very well.
