Which Candidate Won the Evangelical Voters Poll?

Share:

Over the weekend, nearly 2,700 evangelical Christians and social conservatives chose their top candidate for president. After hearing from numerous candidates in person, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas won the Values Voters Summit straw poll for the third time, followed by Dr. Ben Carson and Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Dr. Carson won the event’s vice presidential straw poll.

“Social conservatives don’t expect Republicans to win every fight, but they are tired of GOP leaders entering political battles waving a white flag. Every candidate who spoke made unequivocal stands on both the social and security challenges facing our nation, which clearly resonated with the values voters,” said Family Research Council President Tony Perkins.

“While each candidate offered his vision for a post-Obama America, values voters sent their own message: we are not looking for a Republican president who will just stop the detrimental policies of the Obama administration. We are looking for a leader who will undo the damage this President has done to our country and our culture,” Perkins said.

The winner had a message, too: A straw poll is not enough.

“I am humbled and honored to have the support of so many Christian conservatives,” said Ted Cruz. “But in order for our values to truly be represented in the White House, it’s going to take millions of Christians encouraging each other to get involved and, most importantly, to vote.”

The results were as follows:

Presidential poll:

1. Ted Cruz 35%

2. Ben Carson 18%

3. Mike Huckabee 14%
