Libertarians in the limelight
Many Americans claim to be undecided this election season — or at least disaffected with their party's candidate for president.
Many of those on-the-fence voters are considering casting their ballot for a third party candidate, and Libertarian Gary Johnson has been generating the most buzz. Johnson resonates with both former Bernie Sanders fans and Republicans who are fed up with Donald Trump. But what does he really stand for?
MPR News host Kerri Miller spoke with the National Libertarian party chairperson, Nicholas Sarwark, about his party's platform and efforts this year.
Political scientist Samara Klar also joined the conversation, discussing independent voters and people who find themselves suddenly without a party.
