Here is the website of the Public Policy Polling (tends to be a Democratic leaning poll) that shows Libertarian Robert Sarvis at an astounding 7%!
But it also is favorable for E. W. Jackson – Senator Northam only has a seven point lead in a Democratic leaning poll!
Q6 The candidates for Lieutenant Governor are
Republican E.W. Jackson and Democrat Ralph
Northam. If the election was today, who would
you vote for?
E.W. Jackson………………………………………….. 35%
Ralph Northam………………………………………… 42%
Not sure …………………………………………………. 23%
So 23% are not sure. Even the favorable unfavorable numbers are not terrible for Jackson.
Q4 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion
of E.W. Jackson?
Favorable……………………………………………….. 15%
Unfavorable ……………………………………………. 28%
Not sure …………………………………………………. 57%
57% do not know E. W.Jackson! Go out there and tell ’em about them. He can win.

Sandy, think what you will about Jackson, but those numbers are god awful and any consultant would say that. Among people who know him, twice as many people have an unfavorable view as they do a favorable one. He’s the only GOP candidate that’s losing outside the margin of error.
But great news with Sarvis. I hope Sarvis can make the Libertarians a major party in Virginia!
