Weekend Straw Polls Show Herman Cain on Top

By J D Gordon
Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain continues his straw poll winning streak with victories in Alabama and South Carolina over the weekend.

Cain led the Republican field in the West Alabama straw poll with 50.7% of the votes and 24.5% of the votes in the South Carolina Federation of Republican Women convention straw poll held in Greenville, SC.

"I appreciate the support and vote of confidence from the fine individuals of Alabama and South Carolina.  Together we can win the nomination" said Cain.

The West Alabama and South Carolina straw poll wins follow Cain's successful wins of major straw polls in Florida, Illinois, Kansas City, Minnesota, and Nevada.
