Day by day, the general election creeps closer.

It happens every election season that there are thousands, maybe millions, of people in America who just aren't happy with either the Democratic or Republican candidate.

So what are your other options? Sit out on voting day...or choose a third-party candidate.

Governor Gary Johnson with the Libertarian Party is polling in the teens, which is significant because at 15 percent polling, Johnson could join the presidential debates.

Jill Stein with the Green Party has run for president before, and is not garnering as much press or support as Johnson at this point.

Evan McMullin, former CIA agent and current GOP staffer, has recently thrown his name into the ring, presenting himself as a conservative alternative to Republican nominee Donald Trump.

Dr. Joe Ura, political science professor with Texas A&M University, joins First News at Four to discuss these third-party candidates and their effect on election season and voting day.
