Minnesota’s Republicans attending the 2012 caucuses voted overwhelmingly for presidential candidate Rick Santorum in the straw poll conducted Feb 7.
According to information entered in the MN Secretary of State’s website, with 100% of the Republican precincts reporting, 24,520 grassroots activists attended caucuses across Minnesota and voted as follows: 10.79-percent for Newt Gingrich; 16.85-percent for Mitt Romney; 27.12-percent for Ron Paul; and 44.95 for Rick Santorum.
Norman County’s 33 precincts were slightly different. They reported the following straw poll results for presidential candidates: zero votes for Mitt Romney; 17.39-percent for Ron Paul; 19.57-percent for Newt Gingrich; and 63.04-percent for Rick Santorum.
The Independence Party will not conduct presidential preference balloting in 2012.
The Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party will report their results by March 6, 2012. They will have two choices on their ballots: Candidate Barack Obama or “uncommitted.”

We need you. Are you a conservative? Do you consider yourself a Republican? What are the Basic Principles of the Republican Party of Minnesota?
Republicans stand for personal responsibility, free enterprise, fiscal responsibility and, limited sensible government. We believe that we can:
• Promote Economic Prosperity by lowering the tax burden, exercising spending restraint, and creating and maintaining a fair, honest and competitive business environment to promote economic prosperity and once again make Minnesota the economic engine of the Upper Midwest.
• Preserve Civil Rights by defending the right to life, protecting religious, political and economic liberties, and respecting personal privacy and property and ensuring that government treats all of its citizens equally under the law.
• Educate our Children with the belief that parents are responsible for their children’s education and that parents, teachers and local school boards can make the best decisions about our children’s education.
• Strengthen our Families and Communities by recognizing the blessings that God has bestowed on this great Nation. We also recognize the sanctity of human life and the central role of the traditional family in our society. We work to defend those values in order to strengthen our families and communities.
• Protect Public Safety which we believe is the most fundamental function of government to keep citizens and our property secure.
• Strengthen the Rule of Law by limiting the power of attorneys and judges, limiting frivolous lawsuits, increasing the responsibility of the jury, protecting judicial elections and holding judges accountable to strengthen the rule of law and prevent abuse of our legal system.
• Enjoy and Protect our Natural Resources with proper stewardship that is best achieved through sound science and adherence to constitutionally guaranteed property rights.
• Make Government Smaller and Better by keeping government functions in state, local or private hands, electing honest and responsive legislative bodies and advocating for fair election processes to make government smaller and better.
• Defend America at Home and Abroad by having a strong national defense to maintain peace, securing our borders and by encouraging all people to legally seek freedom, democracy and free enterprise.
If these principles mean something to you and your family…and you want to defeat Obama and the Democrats in November… we need your help.
