I am looking at all the main news websites and state by state they show all the candidate vote totals, but when they show the national tally they only include Nader with Bush and Kerry. Badnarik seems to be doing better than Nader in many states, where can I find how Bednarik is doing Nationally?

I can’t seem to find any info either- even at Badnarik’s election homepage and the Libertarian Party homepage.

Here’s hoping a more savvy Doper sees this- I’d like to know how my guy ended up doing, too.

See [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=284416) in IMHO. I posted there that I’d found that nationwide the Libertarian party seems to have garnered 395,337 total votes.
