He would need $100,000 just to do that. Seriously, I'm against capital punishment, but Fraudnarik and Hacker each deserve death for this. I wouldn’t trust Fraudnarik to run for county commission.

Any "no name" Libertarian would have gotten 2-3%. I hope his career of running for federal office in the LP is over. and Badnarik probably woud have gotten 4% without spending a dime.

Obviously more Republicans did vote for Lampson than Smither and in the special election I think Austin is right that it was probably mostly Democrats voting for Smither to vote against all the other Republicans.

As a consolation prize, though: good riddance to bad candidate. Well, I’d prefer it if Mr. Badnarik had won, naturally, not that that ever seemed like a plausible outcome.
