Title: Alaska (PPP): Hillary Clinton trails all Republicans, except Sarah Palin Post by: Tender Branson on August 02, 2013, 02:21:19 PM PPP's newest Alaska poll finds that Hillary Clinton would have a chance at winning the state in 2016...but only if Sarah Palin was the Republican candidate for President. Clinton would lead Palin 49/40 in a hypothetical match up. Only 18% of Alaskans think Palin should run in 2016 to 77% who think she shouldn't, and even among Republican voters 72% think she should sit out the race.
Clinton trails the other Republicans we tested, although she would make the state closer than it's been in a while. Chris Christie leads her by 8 points at 46/38, Jeb Bush leads her by 7 at 49/42, Rand Paul is up 6 at 49/43, Marco Rubio has a 3 point advantage at 45/42, and Paul Ryan leads by a single point at 47/46. http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2013/08/alaska-miscellany.html Title: Re: Alaska (PPP): Hillary Clinton trails all Republicans, except Sarah Palin Post by: barfbag on August 02, 2013, 07:42:38 PM This is pretty funny.

Pretty pathetic when a former Governor cannot carry a red state that has not went blue since 1964 over someone as "cold" and "calculating" and "polarizing" and "socialist" as Hillary Clinton. But Lord, I sure do hope she is the nominee.

She certainly won't come as close as Obama did in 2012. Just watch. Title: Re: Alaska (PPP): Hillary Clinton trails all Republicans, except Sarah Palin Post by: barfbag on August 09, 2013, 08:49:14 PM Does anyone expect Alaska to gain electoral votes in the next decade or two? Population growth would have to be substantial in a state Alaska in order for it to become more appealing for either party to compete there.

What does that have to do with the state's significance in a Presidential election? Their population would have to double for either party to care about it and even at that it would still be light red. |
