Just curious on opinions.  Obviously there are things we don't know yet that will impact on this, but just an early ballpark.

I could see 5-9% potentially if he gets enough attention but not much more than that.

Somewhere in the low to mid twenties if a progressive is the Democratic nominee, and the low teens if someone not progressive is the Democratic nominee. But that's just my best guess. People are way underestimating him.

Lmao.

In all seriousness, less than 3% generously. Do people seriously think a fiscally right wing (like, one even farther right than the GOP’s economic policy) and socially liberal agenda has mass appeal?

2% at most, but that may well be decisive in close swing states. The 2016 Libertarian ticket was theoretically strong, considering that it had two former governors, as opposed to random Some Dude freaks. Yes, Johnson made himself look like an idiot, but that didn't stop Trump at any point. They still only got 3% despite running against historically unpopular Democratic and Republican candidates. Howard Schultz has even less appeal than Gary Johnson, and the 2020 Democrat will most likely be more popular than Hillary. He will absolutely not win any electoral votes, and the only effect he may have on the race is spoiling it.

1-2%. There is no market for his type of politics, and Schultz is literally Some Rich Dude. Trump had been a household name for decades and had toyed with the idea of running for president many times before.

It's interesting, because the opposite (fiscally left wing, socially conservative) really could have mass appeal.  Yet there's never an independent candidate proposing to run on that platform.

The state where he will do the state is likely to be the Washington state (since Starbucks' headquarters are in Seattle), so it should not cause so much problem for any of the two nominees of the 2 major parties.

1.5-3% unless he is able to somehow get into the heated, but the major parties will make sure that doesn’t happen. If he did get into the debates, 10-20 %.

He is running for the "hate Trump but would vote for him over the Dem" vote, so somewhere around 7-10%.

2-3% against an establishment Dem, 3-5% against Warren, 4-6% against Sanders.

He might beat Gary Johnson's numbers if he's lucky.

0.5% or so. He runs behind the Libertarian nominee.

Given that he probably won't get ballot access in CA, TX, or NY, it's hard to see how his vote total exceeds that.

Edit: NY is easier than I thought, but FL is tougher.
