Johnson/Weld are now on the ballot in 47 states + DC.

Only KY, CT and RI are still missing.

...

Stein/Baraka are now on the ballot in 40 states + DC.

4 states are still missing (WY, ND, RI and KY).

6 states will be Stein-less (NC, GA, OK, NV, IN, SD).

I believe she's an official write-in candidate in GA, IN and NC though. There won't be any way to vote for her in SD. I'm not sure about NV and OK.

Final ballot access:

Johnson/Weld (L)Sad All 50 states + DC

Stein/Baraka (G)Sad 44 states + DC, 3 write-in states (GA, NC, IN), not on the ballot in NV, OK, SD

Extremely impressive for both. Hopefully they get included in the exit polls.

Why wouldn't they be included in the exit polls?  Particularly Johnson.  If Johnson even gets 3% of the vote and they don't include him in the exit poll, the exit pollster would look ridiculous.


Because Edison Research (the exit pollster that is always used) doesn't make the call on that, the member organizations of the National Election Pool do. Neither Johnson or Stein were included as options in the 2012 exit, only the the all-encompassing "other" option was.

While the "other" option will still be there, I'd be pretty surprised if at least Johnson wasn't included this time around. It's a tougher call for Stein.
