USAElectionPolls.com has an audience of about 67,000 visitors per month according to the latest statistics by Quantcast -- making it the most visited polling website with the exception of RealClearPolitics. The web site has been having an online straw poll for three days on voters' preference for the 2008 election; both Democrats and Republicans are listed.
Ron Paul is leading the group of almost 20 candidates with 51%. Even more impressive is that he currently has 1744 votes while the second place candidate Dennis Kucinich has 613 votes -- 18%. Ron Paul leads the next closest Republican competitor in the online poll 51% to 3%.
Ordinarily, very little can be made of such results. They could be flukes. The web site's target audience could be Ron Paul, etc. But USAElectionPolls.com gets an immense amount of traffic all across the United States and it is a non-partisan website that talks about all of the candidates.
The poll is still open and can be found on the front page.

I agree wholeheartedly!
This poll proves the point that is so forcefully made here.
If a Conservative like Ron Paul is not the GOP candidate, then Hillary deserves to win.
We don't need some empty suit!!! (Fred Thompson)
We don't need a Baby Killer! (Rudy Giuliani)
We don't need some cult religious kook! (you-know-who!)
We need a Tall, Strong, Handsome, Muscle Bound Texan to Kick Hillary's Ass!
If we don't get Ron Paul to represent the Conservatives in the White House - then it might as well be Hillary!
Squibble-dy dee! Another nonscientific poll gamed by the Paulbearers.
And yet he can’t get real people who are old enough to vote and registered Republicans to vote for him in the primaries.

You've convinced me to stand more conservative---
Thanks!
He’s got the French vote all sewed up.
Ron is NOT going to get the nomination.
Ron is NOT ever going to be elected POTUS.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
LonePalm, le Républicain du verre cassé (The Broken Glass Republican)
And it just gets weirder.
Finishing in 2nd, with 666 votes, Dennis Kucinich. Appropriate on so many levels...
What do you say?
Kucinich got second. Accurate poll indeed.
(chuckle)
Couple more straw polls, and they’ll have a scare crow...oh, wait, sorry.
They already have one.....
“He’s got the French vote all sewed up.”
LOL I think he also did very well at the Hemp Fest.
‘He’s got the French vote all sewed up.’
Hey, site owners are not supposed to have a sense of humor.
And it just gets weirder.
Lunar eclipse tonight.....
He's not looking for you to pee on him....He's looking for your Support!!
Yea, a poll with Dennis Kookcinich as second really impresses me.
Ordinarily, very little can be made of such results. They could be flukes.
How much longer will we have to endure the RuPaul spammers?
Perhaps this proves the point theory that if one goes far enough right and far enough left, you will meet somewhere in the moonbat ether.
And I'm looking for his support for the troops and their mission. I'll hold my breath.
We fight them over there over there or we fight them over here. Never back down. Never retreat. Never surrender.
This site is analogous to the American Idol site, “votefortheworst.com”. Ron Paul’s numbers come from people voting for the worst as a joke.
All this proves is that Paul people have nothing better to do than vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, vote, delete cookies, ....
They only reasonable explanation for Ron Paul's "amazing" poll numbers is that his supporters use spambots. Only a total idiot would take as representative a poll that shows Paul with 2022 votes and Giuliani and Thompson with a combined total of 114.
End of discusion.
Well, that was a bust...
Please, for the love of God, country and apple pie tell me that you you don’t use sarcasm tags, or just plum forgot to...
If so, well done.
If not, over done, very done and quite done...
oui...
BTW thanks for keeping the humor if you know what I mean...
Nah, they automate it...
LOL! That was my first thought!
No, this means nothing! Only the all-in-the-name early mainstream media opinion polls count! Straw polls mean nothing! Oh except that one Ron Paul lost....um...the Iowa straw poll I think it was. But all other straw polls (at least the ones Ron Paul won) are meaningless!
You’re right; Dennis Kucinich is clearly the frontrunner for the Donks.
“Non partisan” poll. The dems are playing with us. Hope nobody falls for it.
Oh yeah........ Big time! :o)
If (god forbid) that Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich were the GOP and Dim nominations I would sincerely vote third-party!
666? Are they sure that wasn’t the mark on his forehead?
>>Ordinarily, very little can be made of such results. They could be flukes. <<
I don’t think its a fluke. Its yet another example of how much better organized online Ron Paul supporters are than those of the other Republican candidates.
Ron Paul is not my choice for President but it is clear the Republican party needs to keep Ron Paul supporters around for the general.
I’m not trying to be insulting but there is some parallel with Dean. I don’t know what Paul will want if he is not the nominee to put his full effort into the general but Republicans ought to start thinking about what they are willing to pay.
Surprise, surprise.
This isn’t even a straw poll. A straw poll requires you to actually show up at a polling place.
This is an ONLINE POLL! Ron Paul’s spam supporters have spammed virtually every online poll on the planet in favor of this guy.
On a side note, though... I almost feel sorry for Rep. Paul. His campaign has been hijacked by crazies and loons. Of course, by going on shows like Alex Jones, he brought it on himself.
WTF is the “TransWorldNews”? Sounds like media for cross-dressers...
And so the Paulistinians come to us with another mighty Internet poll, where Doc Ron smashes the competition.
Funny how he can’t get any more than 2% in a real poll, eh?
These Paulistinian headlines are starting to sound like 1950’s B movies...
“Ron Paul Conquers The World!”
“The Seven Labors of Ron Paul!”
“Ron Paul vs. Mothra”
lol, another one of these threads... :)
Wonder why Paul gets so many Freepers in a panic with his 1%?
When you show the results numerically, this tells me all I want to know about Ron Paul and who he seems to be attracting:
Ron Paul.............52%.......(2022)
Dennis Kucinich........17%........(666)
Rudy Giuliani........2%......(67)
Barack Obama..........10%.......(381)
Hillary Clinton........5%........(180)
Mitt Romney..........3%.......(119)
John Edwards...........3%........(97)
Al Gore.................2%..........(87)
Fred Thompson .......1%......(47)
Mike Huckabee........1%.......(46)
Bill Richardson........1%.........(30)
Joe Biden..............1%..........(27)
Mike Gravel............1%..........(23)
Newt Gingrich........0%.......(17)
John McCain..........0%.......(14)
Tom Tancredo.........0%.........(12)
Duncan Hunter.........0%........(8)
Chris Dodd.............0%..........(6)
Sam Brownback.........0%........(5)
And the Paulista continue to tout his Conservative credentials and insist he's the Conservative's only hope.
BWAHAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAA!
No Kool-Aid? I want a refund.
OMG, an online poll!! What’s not to believe?
Dennis Kucinich........17%........(666)
That tells something about Kucinich.
There's a difference between panicking and laughing.
