LibertarianLists.com Survey Finds Ron Paul is Leading Candidate Among Libertarian Voters
Washington, DC (PRWEB) July 14, 2007 -- A recent Cato Institute analysis indicated that libertarians constitute a significant portion of the swing vote -- even larger than the fabled 'soccer moms' and 'NASCAR dads' and about the same size as Christian Conservatives. A new survey by LibertarianLists.com has taken a look at the libertarian vote with respect to the 2008 presidential elections.
Of the 1,995 survey respondents, 69.62% percent indicated a preference for Republican Party candidate Ron Paul. Congressman Paul (R-TX) has 92.68% name recognition with the survey participants. 71.33% feel very positively about the candidate and 15.19% feel somewhat positively about him. 2.96% are neutral. 2.01% feel somewhat negatively about Paul and only 1.20% feel very negatively about the candidate.
Paul has the support of 53.98% of the Republicans who participated in the survey, along with 72.24% of Libertarian Party members and 70.59% of independents. He received 27.08% support from the Democrats and Greens responding to the survey.
"Ron Paul is the hottest thing on the Internet for a very good reason: He is connecting with the general public and the typical American voter," said LibertarianLists founder Stephen Gordon. "If you give the Republican and Democrat machines the chance to win, one of them certainly will. However, if you give common-sense Americans a chance to rise above the political machines, Dr. Paul will clearly dominate."
