Incidentally, I tried voting twice, just to see if it was allowed. It’s not.

They said I’d already voted, but to be sure I cast a vote for Gilmore and he stayed at 5 votes.

I just happened across it before I posted it on FR.

It is very interesting.

One of the comments on the polling site was interesting.

He claimed that many of Trump’s votes in recent polls are probably coming from Democrats. That would make sense, actually, because Dems have to love the uproar he’s created. Plus, most of them probably think he’d be easy to beat.

I agree with that poster.

At present, Jeb! wouldn’t make the top ten cut.

With this big a field, it becomes a matter of who gets the minor candidates' votes as the minors drop out.

I'd like to see a poll involving just Trump, Bush, Walker and Cruz.

Thank you.

Walker defended McCain. McCain is an indefensible GOP insider. By defending McCain, Walker was siding with the GOP elite against Conservatives. McCain is certainly no hero.

Many Trump voters in both political parties are government employees and would rather have Hillary in office than have Scott Walker cutting their big spending and regulatory influence.

Real conservatives will refuse to vote for anyone other than Walker in the general election. Scott Walker is the only candidate who has already cut much government spending and proven his intentions. All of the other candidates have shown their intentions to continue big government spending and to further cement socialist influence at all levels of government.

The Trump advocates (government employees) in both political parties are the reason both political parties have gone so far toward socialism and against freedom. Their political influence must be stopped, before our nation collapses under socialism and expanding violations of freedoms.

BUMP!
