How well would a Yang/Gabbard ticket on a 3rd party ticket do?

[Shaula🏳️‍⚧️]

Yang is starting a 3rd party, Gabbard is increasingly becoming more of a centrist-populist maverick and both are friendly with each other and have a similar support base.
If somehow they get ballot access in most states and run in 2024 on a ticket, how well would they do?
0.5%? 1%? 5%?

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

That is, perhaps, the least attractive ticket to have ever been suggested on this website.

No more than 0.2% of the national vote.

[Inmate Trump]

How well did Kanye West do?

What precisely unites Yang and Gabbard other than a superficially similar edginess?

[tosk]

I mean they might get libertarian 2016 levels in the right environment

[PSOL]

100,000 votes, maybe even less.

They're good at attracting the attention of the worst sort of fair weather friends when it comes to voters?

[Ancestral Republican]

What exactly is their base? Asian tech bros who idolize Elon Musk and horny divorced boomer dads who weren't already planning on writing in Ivanka Trump?

[Vice President Christian Man]

I'd predict Perot-type numbers if Biden/Harris is unpopular enough and they campaign extensively. Biden could flip some states with <40% of the vote, but I doubt the P.V. margin would be affected. Biden would probably get >50% in a handful of states (CA,MD,VT, DC/MA) but that's it in this scenario. All the other states would likely be in the 40's for both him & the GOP nominee (assuming it's Trump).

As with Trump, the base is mobilizing disaffected apathetic non-engaged, low information voters who normally are non-voters.

Terribly.

But we'd have to hear about them endlessly.

[DaleCooper]

Yang could scrape together about 3-5%, which is an incredibly impressive accomplishment in this day and age. If anything, I think it'd be Gabbard that would hold him back.

[NewYorkExpress]

Andrew Yang wouldn't pick Tulsi Gabbard anyways.

He's more likely to pick some rich guy like Mike Bloomberg as his running mate.

[ultraviolet]

Bad just like every other third party in recent memory. Probably would poll better due to star power though.

[kwabbit]

Yang and someone more credible in government but still forward thinking would be optimal. Only weirdos like Tulsi Gabbard, I think having her on the ticket would delegitimize it. A campaign wouldn't just be trying to win 18-24 White/Asian men. Yang was unable to appeal to any demographic besides that in the primary.

[All Along The Watchtower]

Very good in the Online polls.

Third party support will be at a minimum for the next few cycles.

[PSOL]

Third party support will be at a minimum for the next few cycles.

Why? There’s been a proliferation of pessimism on both of the parties with many people despising them both. I don’t see how the fact that, COVID taking its cost notwithstanding, there’s been an uptick of third party and non-electoral organizations membership in these past few years lead to anything but a rise in votes.

[Thank you for being a friend...]

Worse than Roseanne Barr did when she was a pot smoking liberal - before her conversion to Cheeto-worshipping has-been.

The "why" is simple:  The US is highly polarized, politically, and its elections are a winner-take-all matter.  Not only are they winner-take-all; there are no runoffs that allow someone to vote Libertarian or Independent or Constitution Party or Green Party; the establishment I can tolerate is better than the establishment I view as an existential threat.
