AMES, Iowa – the federal Congressman from Minnesota, Michele Bachmann, he triumphed on Saturday in a poll in Iowa that involved several contenders for the Republican presidential nomination, showing the popularity and the ability of a favorite of the conservative “tea party” movement organization.

The result of the survey is the first indication of what you think the Republicans from Iowa on presidential precandidatos group and about which candidate has the best organization for a proselytizing campaign.

In addition, this result comes five months before made in Iowa caucuses that open the season of presidential primaries, the opposition party.

However, the triumph of Bachmann far suggest who will win these caucuses in Iowa. You can either serve to predict who will be the Republican nomination or victory in elections in 2012.

Instead, the result of the Saturday suggests that Bachmann has some level of support and, most importantly, stronger operation to go by votes and mobilize volunteers in a State where the assemblies require these virtues.

Bachman is supported by the “tea party”, a conservative movement which calls for the reduction of the Government and the reduction of taxes, and has many supporters among evangelicals, who represent a good part of the Republican base in Iowa and the rest of the country. He received more than 28% of the 17,000 votes cast.

“We are going to make Barack Obama a President who met with a single period,” Bachmann warned before the cheers on the campus of Iowa State University, during the one-day political meeting. Hours later, upon learning that he had won the poll, noted, “this is the first step to regain the White House”.

The Congressman from Texas, Ron Paul, finished a close second, while Governor of Minnesota Tim Pawlenty was far away in third.

“We have a lot more work to do”, said Pawlenty, who made it clear it is not withdrawing from the race despite a disappointing result. “We are just beginning and I am eager to have a great campaign.”

Nine candidates were on the list, but not all competed.

Mitt Romney, the favorite by the Republicans in national polls, and the former Governor of Utah Jon Huntsman, not participated in the survey. And supporters of the Governor of Texas, Rick Perry, and former Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, made campaign even though neither of them was on the ballot.

After months of laying the foundations for their campaigns, Republicans who want to move to Obama had the opportunity to measure their popularity among party activists.

The results of the survey, an initial measure of viability of the precandidatos met barely a few hours after the expected announcement of Perry, that joining the internal strife.

The results of the informal survey are not binding, but is equivalent to a thermometer of domestic popularity and offer candidates the opportunity to measure each other. Thousands of activists paid a ticket in exchange for attending the event.

The result will probably be an indicator of the campaign in Iowa with a view to the assemblies.

To the President of the State delegation of the party, Matt Strawn, the survey is “the first measurable indicator” of the popularity of his contenders.

Romney, former Governor of Massachusetts, headed by national surveys and polls in many States such as favourite to challenge Obama the next year, but there are many rivals who want to emerge and are offered as a better option. Romney lost the nomination in 2008 against the Senator from Arizona, John McCain.

Bachmann was considered among the candidates most likely to lose in the poll, along with another Minnesota politician, the former Governor Tim Pawlenty.

Both clashed during a televised debate Thursday in Ames, when Bachmann said that Pawlenty “is very much Barack Obama” and Pawlenty accused of having “a history of giving false information and false testimony”.

Nine precandidatos competed in the poll. The survey, on the campus of the University Iowa State, lasted six hours.

Romney won the poll in four years ago, but did not enter active on this occasion, while Huntsman, which almost has overlooked Iowa, did not. Both were on Friday in New Hampshire.
