Third -party presidential candidates still present an unknown factor in swing states.

Democrats have tried hard to block third -party candidates like No Labels and RFK , Jr. The Democratic National Committee pumped millions of dollars into casting them as spoilers at best and deceptive vessels of Republican subterfuge efforts at worst.

" Democrats are taking nothing for granted," one Democrat said.

A CNN / SSRS poll released Wednesday showed Kennedy nabbing 3% of the vote in Michigan and Stein getting 2% .

In Wisconsin , Kennedy and Stein each got 1% , while Oliver and West didn't register.

"You could see somebody playing a spoiler if the race is that tight in a lot of these states," GOP pollster Robert Blizzard said.
