| Description | A day after Gary Johnson told TPM he plans to stay in the presidential race as a Republican, he said he will “not rule out considering” dropping out of the GOP race and running as a Libertarian.
“If I continue to be locked out, I would not rule out considering it,” Johnson told TPM Wednesday.
Yesterday, Politico reported Libertarian leaders are urging Johnson — who polls show has failed to find traction among the GOP primary electorate — to follow his ideological heart and run for the Libertarian nomination.
TPM asked Johnson about it, and he said this Tuesday: “I intend to stay in this as a Republican.”
Johnson didn’t respond to a followup question from TPM about reconsidering that position Tuesday, but texted his new answer Wednesday morning. |
