In a statement earlier this morning, presidential candidate Gov. Gary Johnson (R-NM) announced he had received confirmation that he will be allowed to participate in Thursday night’s Fox News/Google debate:
“We are obviously very pleased to have this opportunity to participate. I am bringing forward a voice to the debate that has gone largely unheard thus far and I am convinced that a lot of voters are ready to listen. I’m promising to submit a balanced budget in 2013 and I am further pledging to veto any spending legislation that exceeds revenue.”
The announcement went on to tout Johnson’s popularity in his home state. However, the latest polling shows that the governor isn’t so popular nationally. National polls put him at 1%.
