Ron Paul Steady in New Hampshire Top Three

New poll shows Paul’s continued rise in GOP field
 
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – In the latest New Hampshire Journal poll, 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul remains a top three choice of likely New Hampshire primary voters with 16 percent.
 
 “While others may rise and fall quickly, Congressman Paul’s support is steady and rising,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton. “This is more proof that the American people are ready for real change, and Ron Paul is the only candidate who has the conviction to oppose the status quo of the elitist Washington establishment.”
 
This latest New Hampshire poll comes on the heels of a Bloomberg News poll showing Paul in a statistical tie for first place in Iowa and a strong second place in New Hampshire, and a Public Policy Poll in which he was the only Republican candidate to best Obama among independent voters (48 to 39 percent). A late October CNN/Time poll also showed him in the top three in the key states of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.

RevPAC Launches Supervoter Bomb Direct-Mail Project

By Chris
 
Today RevPAC unveiled a direct mail project to target 200,000 Supervoters in Iowa and New Hampshire.
 
A new Bloomberg poll yesterday has revealed Ron Paul is running neck and neck for first place in Iowa. Well, we’re going to put him well over the hump by direct-mailing two informative literature pieces directly to 200,000 Republican “Supervoters” in Iowa and New Hampshire. A Supervoter is someone who has voted in the 2008 and 2010 Republican primaries – the exact people we need to reach and inform them about how Ron Paul is hands down the best candidate to support for the Republican nomination.
 
The envelopes we intend to direct-mail will include one of RonPaulProducts.com’s beautiful and informative Super Brochures, and a copy of the highly-acclaimed “For Liberty Re-cut” DVD, which has woken up untold numbers of people about Ron Paul and the message of Liberty.
 
Also in the envelope will be a personalized letter from New York Times’ best-selling author, and Honorary Chairman of RevolutionPAC, Thomas E. Woods. In the letter (and in a way only he can), Tom will encourage the recipients to carefully review our mailed materials before going to the polls to vote for Ron Paul.
 
We’ve ran the numbers, and for the unbelievably low cost of only $1.20/each we can deliver one envelope to one Supervoter. We will blanket Iowa’s Supervoters first, and then move the project to focus on New Hampshire.
 
Visit SupervoterBomb.com to help make the project a success by donating to mail some envelopes.

Ron Paul Continues Iowa Surge

New poll puts Paul within striking distance of lead
 
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – In a new Iowa State University/Gazette/ KCRG poll, 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul remains within striking distance of the lead among likely Iowa caucus voters. Paul takes 20.4 percent of the vote, within the margin of error of pizza baron Herman Cain who is tentatively holding the lead at 24.5 percent.
 
“These numbers are a confirmation of Congressman Paul’s principled message,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton. “The American people are ready for real change in the way things are done in Washington, and Ron Paul is the only candidate who will fundamentally change the status quo, by offering serious cuts in spending, bringing our troops home, and restoring our economy to bring prosperity back to America.”
 
This latest Iowa poll comes on the heels of a Bloomberg News poll showing Paul in a statistical tie for first place in Iowa and a strong second place in New Hampshire, and a Public Policy Poll in which he was the only Republican candidate to best Obama among independent voters (48 to 39 percent). The Iowa State University poll also notes that Paul gets nearly twice as much support as the rest of the field from those in the lower income brackets.

New Bloomberg Poll: Ron Paul Neck and Neck For 1st Place in Iowa

Romney Two-Way Race Now Four-Way Republican Dead Heat in Iowa
By John McCormick, Bloomberg.com
 
Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are in a dead heat as the top choices for Iowans likely to attend the Jan. 3 Republican presidential caucuses.
 
A Bloomberg News poll shows Cain at 20 percent, Paul at 19 percent, Romney at 18 percent and Gingrich at 17 percent among the likely attendees with the caucuses that start the nominating contests seven weeks away.
 
Economic issues such as jobs, taxes and government spending are driving voter sentiment, rather than such social issues as abortion and gay marriage, the poll finds. Only about a quarter of likely caucus-goers say social or constitutional issues are more important to them, compared with 71 percent who say fiscal concerns.
 
The poll reflects the race’s fluidity, with 60 percent of respondents saying they still could be persuaded to back someone other than their top choice, and 10 percent undecided. Paul’s support is more solidified than his rivals, while Cain’s is softer. All of the major contenders have issue challenges to address.
 
“In Iowa, it’s long been a two-person race between Romney and someone else,” said J. Ann Selzer, president of Selzer & Co., which conducted the poll for Bloomberg. “It is now a four- person race between Romney and three someone elses.”

Ron Paul Remains Competitive Against Obama in Latest Polls

Paul stays within striking distance of President
 
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – In a new McClatchy-Marist poll, 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul comes in 8 points behind President Barack Obama, 49 to 41 percent, and he is one of only three candidates within single digits of the President.
 
These results immediately follow a Public Policy poll from yesterday, showing Paul 6 points behind Obama, but the only candidate in the GOP field besting Obama among independent voters, 48 to 39 percent.
 
“This is yet another poll demonstrating the increasing popularity of Ron Paul’s message,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton.  “Congressman Paul has the ability to remain competitive against the president as his base of support continues to expand to different groups.”
 
These poll results follow an earlier Bloomberg News poll showing Paul in a statistical first place finish in Iowa, a key early voting state.  Also, a late October CNN/TIME poll showed him in the top three in the key states of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.

Paul leading all other alternatives to Romney

The New Hampshire figures come on the heels of a Bloomberg News poll showing Paul in a statistical tie for first place in Iowa, and a Public Policy Poll in which he was the only Republican candidate to best Obama among independent voters (48 to 39%).

Ron Paul Polls in First Place in Key Early Voting State of Iowa

New survey reveals a statistical tie with Herman Cain—and that Dr. Paul’s support is unwavering
 
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul polls well within the margin of error at first place and has an unusually loyal following that is unlikely to switch to another candidate, according to a new Bloomberg News poll.
 
Paul polls at a strong 19 percent while pizza baron Herman Cain polls at 20 percent, making the first in the nation race a statistical tie.  The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points and was surveyed during November 10th to 12th.
 
Mitt Romney polls at 18 percent and Newt Gingrich at 17 percent among the likely caucus goers, while Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann earned just 7 and 5 percent, respectively.  A mere 3 and 1 percent of respondents, respectively, chose Rick Santorum and Jon Huntsman.
 
Poll highlights favorable to Dr. Paul include the following points:
-Among likely caucus-goers who say their decision is final, Paul leads with 32 percent, followed by Romney and Gingrich at 25  and 17 percent, respectively; and
-Among Paul supporters who backed him in the 2008 caucuses, an impressive 69 percent of those who backed Paul’s bid for the presidency in 2008 still support him now; and
-Paul’s campaign leads all other campaigns in voter contact, with about two thirds of respondents saying they’ve heard from his campaign.
 
The Bloomberg News poll follows a recent CNN/TIME/ORC poll showing that Paul polls among the top three in the key early voting state in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, and that concerning Iowa, Paul’s support is growing along with the changing nature of the field.
 
“The Bloomberg News poll reveals that Ron Paul is a top contender in the key early voting state of Iowa, which helps determine who will win the Republican nomination for the presidency,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton.
