It appears Republicans are looking for an alternative

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3703582/Google-searches-3rd-party-candidate-2016-spiked-1-150-cent.html




Just before Trump took the stage to accept the nomination, the search engine said it saw a 1,150 per cent increase for the phrase while the Cleveland convention was taking place.

And a graph released by the company shows that searches only increased after Trump delivered his address – where he made a series of forceful promises in a 75-minute speech almost entirely lacking in policy details.



Sorry about the source.
