The2012 United States presidential straw poll in Guam was held on November 6, 2012.Guam is aterritory and not astate. Thus, it is ineligible to elect members of theElectoral College, who would then in turn cast direct electoral votes forpresident and forvice president. To draw attention to this fact, the territory conducts a non-bindingpresidential straw poll during the general election as if they did elect members to the Electoral College.[1]
The territory still participated in theU.S. presidential caucuses and primaries like the other states and territories.[2]
Incumbent president andDemocratic Party nomineeBarack Obama won the poll with over 70% of the vote.[3]
