Here is some data to frame the issue:
First, in the last general election (2010), the Democrat received 49% of the vote, the Republican 47% and the Libertarian 4%.
Second, this year there is a Green party candidate, but no Libertarian candidate.
Third, the gap between Republican and Democrat party voter registration is greater than in 2010.
