Straw polls for the Republican Party (United States) presidential nomination, 2008

Because varying presentation methods of the same statistics can subjectively affect perceived results, several reasonable presentation methods are contrasted below. Except for the candidate list and narrative presentation, only the ACTIVE registered multistate Republican campaigns are considered.

Candidates

The following official and potential 2008 candidates have appeared in Republican straw poll results: George Allen, [...] Armey, Haley Barbour, Sam Brownback, George W. Bush, Jeb Bush, Tom Coburn, Hugh Cort, John Cox, Jerry Curry, Susan Ducey, Bob Ehrlich, Cap Fendig, Steve Forbes, Bill Frist, Daniel Gilbert, Jim Gilmore, Newt Gingrich, Rudy Giuliani, Chuck Hagel, Robert Haines, Mike Huckabee, Duncan Hunter, Alan Keyes, Stan Lockhart, John McCain, Ray McKinney, Candice Miller, George Pataki, Ron Paul, Mike Pence, David Petraeus, George Phillies, Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, Mitt Romney, Mark Sanford, Rick Santorum, Richard Michael Smith, Keith Sprankle, Tom Tancredo, Fred Thompson, Tommy Thompson. The category "Other" includes all other straw poll responses (undecided, blank, fictitious, invalid, etc.) and is treated as an additional candidate for ranking purposes.

Map

Each state and D.C. has been colored to represent its most recent straw poll winner. These polls, however, may not be representative of the entire state since many are smaller, local straw polls, and some are several months old. The numbers of states in which each candidate has won the state's most recent straw poll are as follows:

1. Ron Paul (18)

2. Mitt Romney (9, plus District of Columbia)

3. Fred Thompson (7)

4. Rudy Giuliani (2)

5. Mike Huckabee, Duncan Hunter (1)

7. Alan Keyes, John McCain (0)

Narrative

The following 103 poll results (including 1 international poll and 9 multiparty polls) are sorted by U.S. state. Where data is incomplete, it reflects all data available at source.
