As Republicans debate in N.H., Ron Paul tops Rick Perry in presidential polls
Texas Gov. Rick Perry has been getting a lot more national press of late, but Texas Rep. Ron Paul is running ahead of Perry in early Republican presidential polls.
In a June 3-6 Reuters poll, Paul received 8 percent of the vote, while Perry garnered 5 percent. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who, like Perry, is not an announced candidate, was the leader in the Reuters survey with 19 percent. Paul, R-Lake Jackson, placed third; Perry finished tied for fifth.
Both Texans fared worse in a June 2-5 ABC News/Washington Post poll: Paul took 6 percent, Perry 3. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney led that poll with 21 percent.
