Reply #35: In a 3 way race 50% isn't required to win though its always nice to have a majority.

The scenario you have set actually helps Hillary with the male swing vote that was going against her irregardless split between the GOP and Bloomberg (even with an unbalanced percentage) instead of a unified bloc helping her nearest competitor.

But here's something I think we are both interested in.

I am having trouble finding national voter registration breakdowns in terms of true percentage.

Now the closest I can find is Rasmussen's survey dealing with self proclaimed party members(15,000 person sample).

That has it 30.8% for the GOP, 36.% for the Democrats and unaffiliated voters at 32.9%
