Can anyone point me to a definitive list of upcoming straw polls?

Also, I'm meetup-group illiterate. Can someone point me to the National Meetup Group.

Thanks.

P.S. I just found the threads on the National Meetup Groups. Until we sort this out, never mind. I could have sworn that there was a legitimate one that sent out messages to all the other groups. I figured they would have a roster of all the straw polls.

Can we make it sticky?

I found info on one that I think might be important:

IL GOP Straw Poll - August 16. It's free to participate!

Alabama Straw Poll is August 18 in Tuscaloosa, beginning at 10 AM. Cost is $25, which I believe includes lunch.

The article says, "All eligible Illinois voters are invited to participate."

Illinois Aug. 16 at Illinois State Fair
Alabama Aug. 18
Texas Aug. 31

That's all I know. I know some states want to get a piece of that Iowa action but Iowa important because it is the first state to vote.

Even so any good showing in these straw polls can only help so please attend and get others to do so as well.
