Politics and Christianity: Republican Leader Map

(Click On Map To Enlarge It)

The above map illustrates GOP presidential candidate leaders by state, as determined by election results and polls conducted within the last 45 days.

Changes since last published map. Since the last published leader map, we have had three primary/caucuses with Mitt Romney winning Michigan and Nevada and John McCain winning South Carolina. The next state primary will take place on January 29 in the state of Florida where Rudy Giuliani's hard work seems to be working; he has recovered the lead but less than 6 points separates the top four contenders. Pennsylvania and New Jersey, which were both formerly Rudy Giuliani strongholds, have responded to the McCain momentum. This is real news but has barely been mentioned in the media. Massachusetts appears on the map for the first time and it should be no surprise to anyone that its former governor Mitt Romney is leading there. Maryland and Connecticut appear on our map for the first time and are painted yellow for John McCain. Arizona, Colorado, and Kansas have been dropped from the map as the polling data for those states is now more than 45 days old. However, it would seem obvious that John McCain is still leading in these states.

Comment Policy

1. Speak the truth in love
Comments containing untruths and misrepresentations will be deleted unless we think it more important that they be corrected by dialogue with other readers of Politics and Christianity.

Truth is not always pretty, and attempts to clarify can sometimes be cutting (e.g. satire, irony, etc.). However, every attempt should be made to keep comments within the bounds of Christian civility.

2. Don't use words that your Momma wouldn't like
Comments with abusive, blasphemous, coarse, crude, dirty, disrespectful, filthy, foul, godless, impious, impure, indecent, irreverent, nasty, obscene, profane, raunchy, sacrilegious, smutty, or vulgar language will be deleted post-haste. Euphemisms and abbreviations of an ungodly nature are included in the preceding list.

3. Stay on-topic
What you are saying may be very interesting, but it will probably be deleted if it does not relate to the post on which it is appended.

4. No drive-bys
Comments that appear to be cut-and-paste propaganda, rather than attempts to dialogue, will be deleted.

5. Don't assume too much
Sometimes we will respond to your comment and other times we will not; so, (a) do not think we are uninterested in what you have to say if we do not respond, and (b) do not assume that we agree with someone just because we do not respond, -- we actively practice both Proverbs 26:4 and Proverbs 26:5.

6. Publish your ideas instead
If you have more than a few paragraphs to share on a topic, consider submitting it to the editors of Politics and Christianity for publication as a separate article, rather than as a comment. You can submit articles for consideration to editor@politicsandchristianity.com.

7. You retort, we decide
There is no board of arbitration on the issues cited above. The editors of Politics and Christianity are the final authority on what appears here.
