GOP Presidential Primary: Santorum Leads Romney 34% to 30% in Tennessee Ahead of Super Tuesday

 

Could Romney actually win in the South and the Volunteer state?

There is one day to go before Super Tuesday and the primary in Tennessee appears to be a two horse race and too close to call. According to the most recent Rasmussen poll, Rick Santorum leads Mitt Romney 34% to 30% with Gingrich and Paul a distant third and fourth. This is rather startling considering the overwhelming number of evangelicals in the Volunteer state.

Just two days before Super Tuesday, the Republican primary race in Tennessee has become a two-man competition between Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum. The first Rasmussen Reports survey of Likely GOP Primary Voters in Tennessee shows Santorum attracting 34% of the vote, while Romney earns 30%. Polls from other firms have previously shown Santorum with a large lead in the state.

If Romney wins Tennessee, it would be considered a huge upset and just further show the Romney momentum. What is also quite eye opening is that Newt Gingrich is not doing better considering his home state is border state Georgia.
