Giuliani Notes: California – Rudy 25% Thompson 16% McCain 14% Romney 5% in Latest Survey and Policy Research Institute Poll
The Survey and Policy Research Institute at San Jose State University Poll
In the Republican primary, Giuliani leads with 25%, including 32% among conservatives who comprise about half (49%) of all California Republican voters. It is among this large bloc of GOP voters that Thompson, still officially undeclared, makes his most forceful presence, with 25% compared to just 11% for McCain.
GOP voters who are 55 and older are sharply divided: 22% for Giuliani, 20% for
Thompson and 14% for McCain. Likewise, the youngest GOP voters, aged 18-34 are divided 17% for Giuliani and McCain and 13% for Thompson.Thompson also cuts close to Giuliani among those who attend religious services once a month or more, with 20% compared to Giuliani’s 24%. McCain’s best showing is among liberal, non-white and the youngest Republican voters – a small constituency to draw from.
The GOP NUTS:
A good poll for Hizzoner – as he continues to lead throughout the California demographics.
McCain continues to fade and Thompson is now in second place. But, Thompson is not challenging Rudy and has not been campaigning in California besides a disastrously underwhelming speech before the Orange County GOP a number of weeks ago.
California and Florida are the states that Giuliani must and will win on his February 5, 2008 strategy to capture the White House.
