OK, let's assume that Edward Snowden comes back to the USA. He goes to court but the Supreme Court finds that he's not guilty. It's 2015 and the third parties would agree on putting Snowden to run for President.

Question: in a race between Snowden (I) vs Hillary (D) vs Christie (R), what happens? How do the maps look? What are the electoral and popular vote totals? Smiley

If Edward Snowden mounts a third-party bid against Hillary Clinton and Scott Walker in 2016 (Chris Christie will likely be in a federal penitentiary by the time the 2016 election rolls around), he would possibly do somewhat decent in some of the Libertarian leaning states such as New Hampshire, Nevada and New Mexico and maybe in some of the more liberal states like Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Washington as well due to his opposition to the government trampling on privacy rights and strong stance in favor of freedom of speech.

Minimum age for a President is 35 years old. Snowden would be 33 by the 2016 election.
