POLL: Gallup 08 Primary
Eric Dienstfrey | July 17, 2007
A new Gallup national survey (2008 results; McCain results) of 1,001 adults (conducted 7/12 through 7/15) finds:
- Among 417 Republicans, former Mayor Rudy Giuliani leads former Sen. Fred Thompson (30% to 20%) in a national primary; Sen. John McCain trails at 16%, former Speaker Mitt Romney at 8%.
- Among 483 Democrats, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads Sen. Barack Obama 34% to 25% in a national primary; former V.P. Al Gore trilas at 16%, former Sen. John Edwards at 9%. Without Gore, Clinton leads Obama 40% to 28%
- "If McCain were to withdraw from the race for the Republican presidential nomination -- something he claims to have no intention of doing -- frontrunner Giuliani's position would be strengthened, with Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney continuing to run far behind."
- If from the last four Gallup surveys (from June and July) votes for McCain were reallocated to second-choice candidates, Giuliani would lead Thompson 38% to 19%. If McCain were included, Giuliani would lead Thompson 30% to 17%.

Paul:
Compared to Gallup from May, Thompson (now second) is up 8 and McCain (now third) down 7, Giuliani (still first) and Romney (still fourth) no change. On the Democratic, side no change: Clinton ahead of Obama by about 10 points.

My vote is for McCain and supprised how my fellow Americans have jumped ship or have not seen the honesty over any other candidate that I have ever been able to read over all my years.
Good luck to us all.
