On October 23, SurveyUSA released a poll for the Indiana U.S. Senate race. See the story here. All three ballot-listed candidates were included.
Many other pollsters this year are not including anyone in their polls other than the Democratic and Republican nominees. Thanks to Political Wire for the link to the Indiana poll, which shows the Libertarian nominee at 8%.
HOW MANY MINORITY RULE — OLIGARCH — WINNERS THIS YEAR

Indiana does not allow robo-polling, therefore this poll was an online poll. Libertarian candidates always do better in online polls.
I didn’t vote for Donnelly in 2012, and I won’t vote for his this year. Democratic canvassers can come to my door all they want, his ads make him look like a Republican, which is only fair, because that’s what his voting record makes him look like. Not being a Libertarian, I’m not convinced I’ll support that candidate, and none of the three official write-ins are terribly good either, so, much like last time, I’ll probably just leave that office blank.
Polls that are not including anyone in their polls other than the Democratic and Republican nominees are by definition, not legitimate polls.
@JM and why not provide support so that the Dem wins, thereby giving an increased likelihood that Democratic Party as a whole takes the senate? Think bigger picture than the individual election.
Vote for FREEDOM — Vote for the Libertarian.
Super-easy to be a RED communist Donkey with the assets and incomes of other folks.
See the 1917-1991 RED communist Russia-USSR regimes – and the final about 40 years econ collapse.
History means nothing to New Age RED communist Donkeys in the USA.
Andrew, because I’m not a Democrat, and helping that corrupt centrist Wall Street owned party is not a goal of mine. At best they’re a lesser evil, but I just consider them a different evil. Besides, you can say bigger picture all you want, but the candidate is Donnelly, and his campaign ads and entire history show he’s a conservative, so he isn’t after my vote, obviously.
