I lean republican my wife leans democrat. We are both voting RFK.

[tao_dude]

This dude is wrong! Look at the comments man. We're all voting for RFK! Yeah baby!

[barnabybot]

I would choose rfk over biden and trump in a heartbeat.

[RadiantVaughn]

His poll said "independent" instead of Kennedy's name. I wonder if the results would have been different if Kennedy's name was actually included.

[roughtobebufftv]

Kennedy is old school American class. Someone I would want my son to emulate himself after.

[jeffhaddix]

The poll didn't even put RFK Jr's actual name as an option. This poll isn't a good indication of who actually wants to vote for RFK Jr.

[henry-bonp]

Instead of asking people if they would vote for "a 3rd party candidate, " maybe ask them point blank "would you vote for Robert Kennedy"? A lot of Americans definitely will vote for RFK for President.

[jewberrygreen]

It would probably help the polls if they presented the 3rd party candidate as an actual option

[miket]

RFK ALL THE WAY!!!! - RFK is really the only choice

[calicomist]

I'm Republican and I'm voting for RFK JR in November 2024! 💜

[Smellslikeappelflap]

RFK won that debate hands down! Answers with content on issues that matter !

[jcooloti]

Horse shit. Lots of RFK JR supporters out there. Much more than any BS poll says…

[wellofmanyworlds]

I'm a former dem, they lost me after pushing Hillary (and pushing out bernie). I will never vote for Trump (I won't support the biggest narcissist in the room).

I am voting for the one candidate that inspires me, that we can take back our country from the corporate powers that suck our life blood away, that keep us fighting over bs so we don't see them behind the scenes, pulling the strings.

I'm voting RFK JR, and all who love the freedom we still actually have, should as well.

[jrbostic]

Regardless of your poll, the country is seeing people eager to Vote RFK, and we will all be voting RFK.

[sunbear]

If the 3rd party candidate could share the same stage then we would have a better choice.

[suejackson]

You're not asking the question in the right way. Let me know if you'd like some assistance. RFK all the way!❤

[stuartarmet]

RFKjr is the only option, good for America and the rest of the world.

[Ddayboy]

I’m just voting who I think would be the best president. It’s RFK for now. I think everyone should vote for who they think would best run the country and not vote for who they are least afraid of.

[colton_]

This election is the people vs mass media. The people want RFK Jr!

[scottmcmanus]

RFK all the way baby! Lets take back America from the corporations.
