The most significant impact they had would've been in 1994, where many believe that Ross Perot essentially cost the Republicans the election. Many say the same about Ralph Nader in Florida with the 2000 election, but most of his voters were people who wouldn't have voted if he weren't in the election, and EVERY third party candidate in Florida received more votes than the difference in votes between George W. Bush and Al Gore.
