wow johnson!

Very interesting. And this was done before Sanders lost the nomination as well. Anecdotal evidence, but the libertarian and garyjohnson subreddits have seen huge influxes of posts from Sanders supporters saying they now support Johnson. BTW, it says these numbers near the bottom of the article.

Are you really trying to extrapolate from Reddit to the general population?

I'm surprised FOX would release a poll showing Hillary leading, even in the 30s.

[Green Line]

If Johnson gets enough support to be included in a debate, everyone will see how weird and crazy he really is.  Seriously, the guy is so awkward.

For reference, the last Fox News poll, around 3 weeks ago, foxnews.com/politics/interactive/2016/05/18/fox-news-poll-2016-national-release-may-18/, has Trump 42 Clinton 39 and Johnson 10.

So Trump went -6 Clinton went +0 and Johnson went +2.

Interesting to note- Hillary's number didn't change at all.

Hahaha Johnson is beating Clinton among Independents and only 9% behind Trump

Trump 32% Johnson 23% Clinton 22%

[HillOfANight]

Trump supporters are split between being happy to vote for him (51 percent) and holding their nose (48 percent). 

Clinton backers are more upbeat:  60 percent happy vs. 37 percent holding their nose.

I'm not saying it will extrapolate to everyone but just read through the comments on his facebook: facebook.com/govgaryjohnson/

There's hundreds of posts from Sanders supporters saying they will now vote for Johnson.

[Seriously?]

This all comes down to party ID. The previous poll was R+1. This one was D+6.

It will be interesting to see the results when the likely voter screens start to come into play.

Wasn't the 2012 election D+6?

Correct. And 2014 was D+1.  2016 should be closer to +6 than +1 is my guess as 2014 was the six-year itch election.

Right now, they aren't weighing anything, screening anything, etc. The chips are falling where they are without much special sauce. I'd expect the different result with the two drastically different samples.
