(09/07) Who would you like to see as the next President of the United States?

[1968]

The results of Optiboard's August Straw Poll are listed here: http://www.optiboard.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24909

Rudy Giuliani won with 20% of the vote (i.e. 5 votes). Two other Republicans, Ron Paul and Fred Thompson, tied for second place; each had 12% of the vote (i.e. 3 votes). Among the other GOP candidates, Mitt Romney received 4% of the vote (i.e. 1 vote) and no one voted for Mike Huckabee or John McCain.

Among the Democrats, Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Barack Obama, and Bill Richardson tied for fourth place; each had 8% of the vote (i.e. 2 votes). Among the other Democratic candidates, no one voted for Al Gore and Dennis Kucinich.

Thanks to all those who voted!

Now, has anyone changed his or her mind over the past month (or week)? Who would you like to see as the next President of the United States?

To determine which candidates should be listed, I reviewed the results of the most recent Gallup polls for each of the two major parties and put down the top six from each party. This poll closes at the end of September and I plan to open a new one in October.
