Trump Wins GOP Straw Poll in DE (72% Trump)

Donald Trump wins this week's GOP Straw Poll in Delaware.

This week the Sussex County Republican Party held its Presidential Primary "straw poll" at the GOP Headquarters in Georgetown. While the turn-out was moderate, the results were very interesting.

Donald Trump won the poll with 72-percent of the vote; coming in second was Ted Cruz with 21- percent of the vote, followed by John Kasich with 7-percent.

The format and names on the Straw Poll ballots duplicated that of the sample ballot provided by the State Election Office in Georgetown. They included the names of Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, and Marco Rubio, but no one voted for those candidates.

County GOP Chairman Billy Carroll says he's very pleased by the enthusiasm and interest shown by the voters; he says Republicans are eager for the primary on April 26 and are ready to support the GOP candidate in November.

Ewww, is Teddy trying to look less slimy in that photo?
Can’t even look at that very odd expression.

Sussex County is the conservative county in DE.

This is my backyard.

Good folks here.

Go Trump!

DE & Maryland should be “slave states” that Cruz could win compared to every other state on the east and west coast that is coming up.

OK lets start at the beginning for you as you seem to just want to resort to insults and not facts.

You stated Trump will win the north east because they love liberlas
It was pointed out to you that Trump won the south here so doe shtatmake us liberals too?

You then went on how we don’t understand the word liberal. Now do you understand you are not making sense or coherent right now?

I was referring to the primaries. The entire NE corridor is liberal, Trump is a liberal so yes, he’ll take the region in the primaries.

I never “insulted” you. You referred to me as a drunk and then get morals? Come on dude. Lighten up.

I conceded he won the south - my point was that a liberal won the south and you agreed so I agreed that we can call Trump a liberal.

It was all pretty straight forward. Bottom line, Trump is a liberal.

so if a liberal wins the north east and the south does that make us in the south liberals in your mind?

Nope - all I said was Trump is a liberal.

You are free to support who you wish.

All I was after is agreement that Trump is not, never was, never will be a Conservative.

If need be even I will vote for this NY liberal in the general since the other NY liberal is even more detestable. But while there's still a true Conservative in the race, that won't happen.

OK then I will concede he is not the ideal candidate, but then again none of them are and never has.

We can agree that this “purity” test is pure folly.

I am a Conservative, I want to vote for a Conservative which is why I support Cruz.

If he loses, I’ll vote for Trump but for me it’ll be in the same vain as I voted for McCain and Romney. Not because I want to.

No way!

Cruz said TRUMP is one and done.

Cruz said the DC Cartel is backing him, and therefore Don is done.

Cruz said it’s all about delegates, so really from here on out, why should people vote anyway.

Cruz said Wisconsin is the nomination, because Ryan and Walker and Priebus promised to crater TRUMP with hand picked delegates that are anti-TRUMP.

This straw polling and voting is for the birds. Cruz said.

Stick Cruz in that pic now, Dick. The DC Cartel loves Ted, who made a living off calling out the “dc cartel”. Ha!
