In a close race, Libertarian Gary Johnson clearly makes the GOP nervous. In Iowa, the Romney campaign "ran what was effectively a surveillance operation" to monitor Johnson's efforts to collect ballot signatures. In Pennsylvania, GOP officials "hired a private detective to investigate his ballot drive." In Michigan, the Johnson campaign filed the necessary paperwork three minutes late, and Republicans used this to block the former governor from the state ballot.

They say a lot of the undecided vote can't decide who they hate more, Obama or Romney, so these votes for Stein & Johnson might never have reached the Dem or Republican choice.
Some people may just choose not to make a choice for President, but vote the rest of the ballot.
