Note that with the Independence Party candidate factored in, it's impossible for Kennedy to win, even if he gets all the undecideds.

I'd still rather see Amy get over 50%. Then again, she probably will, even with these numbers. I don't see why the IP candidate will get 8% though. The polls seem to be overestimating IP support, then again that's common with third parties.

IP candidates typically take votes from both sides, which one more depends on the candidate and the race, plus they have a dedicated base of about 4% or so that honestly believe voting IP can help them acheive centrist reform and all that and don't draw from either major party. I'd say Fitzgerald is probably drawing a little bit more from Klobuchar, but unless it's really close it won't a make a difference, and it won't be really close.
