okay, so Nader apparently got 2.74% of the total popular vote 4 years ago*, or about 920K votes of a possible 105M. This time around, with 5 days or so to go, things are a bit different. The man ain't even on the ballot in several states, and voter turnout will HOPE TA GOD be far higher than last time.

Use this thread to speculate on his final tally. Will it break 1%? Will it break 3/4%? Will the Libertarian candidate beat him this time around?

*(including mine. Yay for living in a safely blue state at the time!)

also, has anyone seen any Nader '04 signs/buttons/stickers/t-shirts or anything? I live in Portland now(a MAJOR support center for him last time), and i haven't seen jack shit.

It'll break 3/4%. Badnarik will break 1%

All you people who don´t want to vote for Bush and live in a blue state are going to vote for Nader, right?

assuming you like Nader, it wouldn´t be throwing away a vote if Kerry has a far enough lead.

wait, are you asking me?

i was referring to my vote in 2000 going to Nader, since i lived in Michigan at the time.

I already voted for Badnarik

I saw a Nader sign in a window in a house near campus the other day, and only just then realized it was the only one I've seen all year anywhere. In 2000 there were Nader signs all over the fucking place.
