Why is this important? Guam is a territory and, as such, has no electoral college value, but...
It went 2/1 to Bush in 2004. It has been said that if Obama won the Straw Poll in Guam, the general election would be a landslide. Here are the numbers:
PRESIDENT
1 OBAMA, Barack 20,120
2 MCCAIN, John 11,940
Barr 115

For anyone interested, they are also leaning "no" on Prop. A, legallising casino gambling, so any future Vegas-style trips you have planned to Guam can be called off.
I know this isn't much of a diary but was pretty excited about these numbers, even though they don't count. It shows the marked difference between 2004 and now. I was wary of the polls putting Obama ahead by 7 or 8. I've never trusted polls. It may be easier to rest now, but guess I'm not going to sleep between now and the Victory Party (actually, return-watching party).
