Buchanan claims that he was a greater spoiler than Nadar on a state by state basis. Let's take a look at that claim. The following question was posed:
If Nadar had not been on the ballot, how would you vote?
50% - Gore
30%- Bush
20%- stay home.
I've seen this poll cited a number of times and have frequently wondered about it. Who are these Nader>Bush>Gore voters? People who want to punish Democrats, or are there quite a few "consumer safety conservatives" or something?
Conservative-leaning non-interventionist/peace types, and people concerned about the effects of corporations on small town America.
