Poll Results: Newt Gingrich to Capture GOP Nomination

Rusty Weiss — January 30, 2012

Great response from readers here at the Mental Recession on this weeks poll. Thanks so much to everyone who participated!

We asked – Who will win the GOP nomination?

Here are the results:

Newt Gingrich – 40%

Trending: Romney, Kasich ‘Sickened’ by Mueller Report – Trump Fires Back

Mitt Romney – 26%

Ron Paul – 17%

Rick Santorum – 15%

My opinion? I think a lot of the votes came in prior to Romney’s surge in Florida, riding the Newt bandwagon. I still believe this is Romney’s to win – for better or worse.

That said, if Santorum or Gingrich were to suspend their campaign at some point, those votes would likely consolidate on the ‘anybody but Romney’ side of the aisle, making things infinitely more interesting.

What do you think? Now’s your chance to back up your vote!
