Libertarian turn out in NC

One of the surprising things about yesterday’s election for me was the number of libertarian votes in North Carolina. While it would be impossible to say for sure which direction these voters would have went had they not voted for Barr, it seems likely they would have went for John McCain giving him a slight edge in what turned out to be a very close race in the Tar Heel state.

Does anyone have any insight on the number of libertarian votes?
