November 2, 2007 -- ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA—Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul continued his trend of straw poll victories in Springfield, Missouri on Thursday evening. The Texas congressman placed first in the Springfield Metropolitan Republican Club straw poll, in the conservative Ozarks region. He earned more than 77 percent of the vote, polling higher than all his opponents combined.
Mike Huckabee placed second with 10 percent. 110 Republican Club members participated in the poll.
This is the latest in a string of straw poll successes for Congressman Paul. A straw-poll frontrunner, Congressman Paul has the largest number of supporters of any presidential candidate on popular internet social network sites Meetup.com and Youtube.com.
“Dr. Paul is bringing the Republican Party together,” said Paul campaign chairman Kent Snyder. “Supporters in Missouri and nationwide know that only Dr. Paul can beat Hillary in 2008.”
The Springfield Metropolitan Republican Club is a Republican grassroots organization in Greene County, Missouri.
