And which county? I'm very bearish on the chances of pretty much all individual third party candidacies, but I think "Not Trump or Clinton" will probably do very well this election.

For reference, the best "Other" county in 2012 was Torrance County, NM which had the breakdown:

Romney: 55.12%
Obama: 37.93%
Other: 6.95%

This time round, I can imagine Other doing very well in 92% Mormon Franklin County, ID, but probably not enough to win a plurality. Lincoln County, NV also has the option of "None of the Above" and doesn't seem like a great fit for either candidate, so maybe that will do pretty well there.
