Michele Bachmann continues to lead the field of announced Presidential candidates among Republican primary voters, but Rick Perry would be the top choice if he entered the race.
Mitt Romney trails both Bachmann and Herman Cain among announced candidates and falls even further back when Perry and Chris Christie are included. However, he continues to be seen by GOP voters as most likely to be the nominee.
IBOPE Zogby International conducted an online survey of 1,103 likely Republican primary voters. These results are from an IBOPE Zogby interactive poll conducted from July 22-25.
