Could actually hurt Trump in Georgia, will be interesting to see how that works out.

Agreed. It's odd that the headline even brings up Harris, considering the people voting Libertarian were probably never going to vote for her anyway.

Eh. It depends on the libertarian. I'm mostly anarchistic in regards to individuals--not at all in regards to institutions and corporations--so I can appreciate some libertarians. But most current libertarians aren't really interested in personal liberty for all, just freedom from consequences and obligation for themselves. For instance, you aren't going to see very many current libertarians that support trans rights, since many people that currently claim to be libertarian are actually extremely socially conservative, rather than allowing everyone the freedom to make choices for themselves.
At any rate, what Dems claim to believe aligns far more closely with my own beliefs than what Republicans claim to believe--and what Libertarians actually do--so I tend to vote Democratic, even though the party as a whole is opposed to some of my core beliefs.

My guess would be they're assuming that because he's gay, that might pull away Democratic votes? I mean, it won't, but I'm guessing that's their logic.
I think the fact he's from Georgia is going to be the biggest factor.
