On Saturday, Republican presidential candidate and Texas Congressman Ron Paul won the Nevada Republican Assembly's Straw Poll with 39 percent.

Dr. Paul had more than double the support of John McCain who
received second place with 15 percent of the straw poll vote. Over ninety people voted in the poll, which was held on Saturday afternoon on the second day of the Nevada Republican Assembly's Presidential Endorsing Convention. The straw poll was open to the public.

"Ron Paul supporters showed their dedication by coming out to vote in the middle of a snow storm," said Jennifer Terhune, a Nevada-based spokeswoman for the Ron Paul campaign. "Dr. Paul's message of freedom, peace and prosperity is resonating with Nevadans."

The Ron Paul campaign has over two hundred and thirty registered volunteers in the Reno area, as well as over six hundred in Las Vegas.

Ron Paul has had other recent straw poll victories in northern Nevada. He won the Conservative Leadership Conference straw poll last October with 32% of the vote, and a Washoe County Republican Party straw poll in the same month with an overwhelming 41% of support from local Republicans.
