Rand Paul, the junior senator from Kentucky, has won this year’s CPAC straw poll. Marco Rubio, the junior senator from Florida, came in second.
“Sen. Rand Paul won the 2013 Washington Times-CPAC presidential preference straw poll Saturday, and Sen. Marco Rubio was a close second, easily outdistancing the rest of the field and signaling the rise of a new generation of conservative leaders who will take the Republican Party into the 2016 election,” reports the Washington Times, a sponsorer of the poll.
