There are a little over half a million Libertarians registered across the nation, which comprises about a half a percent of all voters. Trivial, you say? Hold still, because I need to slap some reality into you. Donald Trump’s margin of victory in the swing states that moved the Electoral College into his column was infinitesimal. Of the 137 million votes cast in 2016’s election from hell, just 107,000 votes in three states decided the race.
