Ron Paul Leads GOP in Minority Support
Candidates' Broad-based Demographic Strength Shows Potential to Be True 'Uniter' in General Election
JonesReport.com | November 20, 2007
A recent national Zogby poll found that Ron Paul dominated in a bi-partisan 'blind' match-up with GOP front runners in nearly every demographic, including most religious groups.
That proved especially true amongst racial demographics. Ron Paul's lead over Giuliani exceeded 20 percentage points in some categories including African Americans, who make up 11% of the electorate, and Asian voters, who make up 2%
Ron Paul even held a sharp lead in 'White' and 'Hispanic' demographics (in which racial voting trends are usually less cohesive), pulling 31.5% and 34% to Giuliani's 20% and 17.2%, respectively.
Furthermore, concerns that Ron Paul isn't reaching women voters were offset by poll numbers showing 34.7% support from female voters in the 'blind' poll as compared with only 30.8% support from male voters. Giuliani, by comparison, pulled only 17% and 20.3% support in the same poll.
