Poll: Pick Your GOP Candidate

Patch wants to know who you support as the Republican candidate for President.

Iowaians will head to the polls today by the thousands to cast their vote for their preferred GOP candidate for President, officially kicking off the 2012 presidential election season. 

That's right, for the next 11 months we'll see and hear even more coverage of the candidates and their positions than we have in the weeks and months leading up to today, culminating in the general election itself on Nov. 6, 2012. 

Connecticut registered Republicans will have their chance to select their preferred candidate on April 24 of this year when the state holds its primary, but we wanted to know if you could cast a ballot today in Iowa who would you pick as the Republican candidate?
