Presidential Preference Poll

As the race for president heats up this fall, Dick Schuldt at the University of Illinois' Survey Research Office of the Center for State Policy and Leadership gives us an idea of how Illinois voters feel about the candidates in each political party. In short, Illinois' "favorite son," U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, holds a commanding lead over U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Here's the summary.
The breakdown of Democratic preferences is here.
The Republican breakdown is here.

No Ron Paul?

I still think he'll pull some anti-war votes out of a boring Dem primary....

...too what effect on either party I don't know.

Things like the race between Lauzen Oberweis and the fellow from Genva (I'm blanking)...so what happens if these Ron Paul types jump into the GOP primary and what do they do down the ballot. (I bet Oberweis. They're isolationists, want US out of Iraq, and want immigrants out of the US).

I have feeling Paul will be bigger than folks think right now.

I'm waiting to hear back from Dick as to why he omitted the Green Party candidates.
