The results of a Rasmussen Reports national survey conducted after Monday's GOP Presidential Candidate debate are shown below:
Candidate | Percentage |
---|---|
Mitt Romney | 33% |
Michele Bachmann | 19% |
Herman Cain | 10% |
Newt Gingrich | 9% |
Ron Paul | 7% |
Tim Pawlenty | 6% |
Rick Santorum | 6% |
Romney and Bachmann are tied among primary voters who say they are Tea Party members, with 26% support each. Romney holds a 36% to 16% lead over the congresswoman among non-members. Most primary voters regard all the candidates with the exception of Huntsman as conservative, but Bachmann is seen as the most conservative.
In late April, billionaire developer Donald Trump led the pack with 19% support, followed by Romney at 17% and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee with 15%. Trump and Huckabee have since announced that they are not running. Bachmann was the leader among the second-tier candidates at that time.
