What do you think of undecided swing voters? [View all]

I know two of them

Both men.

Both of them voted for Gary Johnson in 2016, but don't like Biden or Trump.

They hate Trump's voice and style but say that the Black Lives Matter activism makes them despise Biden.

They say they may stay home or write in someone like Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker.

What do you think of them?
