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.

Interesting, GWB from Ron Paul central skipping threads.
No, it was a response to a suggestion I support Dennis.
As I noted, these internet polls are bogus, and those who believe them are morons, yes GWB, you are a political moron.
But let's see your response to this now "legitimate" poll when King Ron was only up 3-1, in post 74

I thought it was worth pointing out how SJackson and the other Paul-haters routinely use misleading quotes from obscure websites to trash Ron Paul. It shows how desperate and dishonest they really are. Well, if the malicious keyword spamming they engage in isn't enough to tip readers off to begin with.

George W. Bush's characterization of me and those who have the audacity not to support Paul as follows in post .
blatantly dishonest article from you.your entire little ongoing trollfest
How ignorant and malicious can you be?
Your posts are systematic in their use of innuendo and third-party misquotes
Your own news threads are all suspect when you have established such a history of deliberate dishonesty.
As usual, when her trick is exposed (as she has been so many times before), SJackson will feign indignant righteousness, pretending that she didn't know and click through
her little crew of Paul-haters
It doesn't get much more dishonest than this
This is part and parcel of the tactics of the Paul-haters, hence my flag to the rest of you.
They attempt to get someone to say someone about 9/11 Trutherism or something antisemitic so they all hit Abuse.
This is an organized disinformation effort by the Paul-haters, likely coordinated via FRmail if you notice the pattern of how they appear on these threads.
I thought that due to the repeated dishonest posting and baiting tactics the Paul-haters use, we need to start pointing it out.
see exactly how the Paul-haters operate, who they are, who some of them truly support, the anti-FReeper forums some of them belong to, etc.
Many of the Paul-haters are not what they appear to be. They are FUDsters and rely on people's laziness to believe their lies and distortions. I think everyone needs to know about it before they waste their time responding to such obvious trollish and baiting posts.
The fact of the matter is that George W. Bush is full of *rap. He pontificates, but can't back up anything. A characteristic many of his fellow Paul supporters share. They do their candidate no favors.
Anyway, he's got 2,000 plus votes out ther George, can't do much better than that.
And any time you care to attempt to back up those accusations, feel free to ping me.
If you care to ping me thread to thread like this, that's ok too, you're not a particularly competant troll.
BTW, what's with the she stuff.
The only time I've been called a she was a few years ago on either libertypost or libertyforum, a thread about the conspiracy at FR. Did you make that up, or in your extensive reasearch on google about me and other Freepers (you did admit that GWB) did you read something a banned freeper posted and take it for fact?
Or do you think as a female my opinion is less important?
and may I say, that is one heck of a profile page.
That took some time.
What do I say?!?
I say I want someone who is willing to protect the U.S. from Islamofascists and who recognizes that we are at war!!
Ron Paul needs to get a grip on reality.
John Kerry comes to mind. Sheehan, Murtha, etc. Paul has some good allies.
I can barely update my profile page any more. My browser times out when I hit the update key.
Been there, done that, you're not even creative.
Paulbearer HQ cannot afford Kool-aid, just that Wylers crap.
Yeah, just because Ron Paul and his supporters associate with unsavory people, doesn’t mean that’s their fault or his.
This article is a press release put out by this polling website....which is minutely small.
Pay no attention.
Bozo, you pinged a large number of Paul supporters to your Bull *hit, not a one responded.
My suggestion as I've noted before, if you don't want me here make your accusations.
As to the keyword accusations of "my group", I don't have a group and you're a liar.
Admin Moderator, feel free to weigh in.
If you can't, particularly on the keyword issue, I'll understand.
Hmmm, that’s funny because I voted, cleared my cookies and then voted again.
So easy, even a caveman can vote several times in it.
LOL
“If a Conservative like Ron Paul”
Quite sure I’m not the first to tell you but Ron Paul is no conservative. He’s a libertarian. FYI I spelled libertarian with the small “l” on purpose. I will give him props as a Republican, but not a conservative, a libertarian Republican.
“We don’t need some empty suit!!! (Fred Thompson)”
Opinion (on the empty suit quip)
We don’t need a Baby Killer! (Rudy Giuliani)
You are correct.
We don’t need some cult religious kook! (you-know-who!)
Mormonism is not a cult. Cults don’t let you leave.
“We need a Tall, Strong, Handsome, Muscle Bound Texan to Kick Hillary’s Ass!”
When one gets in the race, ping me.
The facts speak for themselves:
http://i.cnn.net/cnn/interactive/allpolitics/0706/popup.congress.earmarks/pdfs/tx.14.paul.pdf
What's $400 million between friends?
And I love Ron Paul's truly Kerryesque explanation: I voted for the earmarks before I voted against them.
You gotta be kidding me.
“Straw polls mean nothing!”
Online Straw Polls such as this, mean even less than that.
