Polls show that 70% of voters don't want to see a Trump-Biden rematch. That means they would be highly receptive to a 3rd-party candidate.
Here's a thread I started over in the Pittsburgh sandbox that is relevant to our discussion here.

Clinton/Bush Redux.
After all of his bluster, All Ross Perot did was draw enough votes away from Bush to give Clinton the Electoral victory.
That is all any third party candidate this time will do. Let’s take it for Granted that the Libral Progressive Democrats have 35 percent of the vote no matter what, and the MAGA Republicans have 35% no matter what. It simply comes down to how many of the so called undecided decide would have voted Democrat, and how many would have voted Republican.
The electoral vote is a winner takes all. All you have to do is get one more vote than the others.
I personally think any third party candidate will draw more from Biden.
