Ron Paul Wins First NYC Straw Poll

Ron Paul won New York city's first straw poll at the Young Republican's debate. This was fairly impressive being that it is Rudy Guliani's 'home city'. One had to be a member and pay a $35 fee to vote. The results are as follows:

Paul - 26
Guliani - 21
Romney - 6
McCain - 4
Huckabee - 2
Hunter - 1
Thompson - 1
Cox - 0
Keys - 0
Tancredo - 0

These were total votes, not percentages. Ron Paul received 43% of the vote.
