Manchester Straw Poll Results

So Frank Guinta gets almost three times as many votes as his nearest competitor–and more than all of them combined. Jim Bender hauls in a first place tally. And John Stephen blows away the field, with close to double the Grok’s endorsed candidate Jack Kimball. What does it mean? It means a few folks will be claiming it doesn’t mean anything. And maybe next week it won’t.

But then, that’s politics.
