Third-party candidate would "dent" Biden - Hanson

August 17, 2023 WLNS

Jonathan Hanson, WLNS: Political expert Jonathan Hanson, a lecturer at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy, believes that based on these polls we could see similar results to the 2020 election with Biden winning, unless a third-party candidate gets added to the mix.

“That particular combination showed a bit of an impact on Biden’s vote, not a huge amount but just enough to put Trump in the lead for the poll for Michigan. I do think that creates a scenario that could really throw a wrinkle into the election,” said Jonathan Hanson, a lecturer at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy.
