Patch Poll: Who Would You Vote For - Obama or Romney?

With President Barack Obama in Iowa for the third time this year, potential voters are feeling the push to decide - Barack Obama or Mitt Romney?

 

Last month President Barack Obama visited students in Iowa City to talk about student debt. Just last week, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney came to Des Moines to talk about our "prairie fire of debt."

This Thursday, Obama will be back in Iowa - Newton and Des Moines, reportedly - for both presidential business and for a campaign event. It will be Obama's third visit to the state this year. 

All eyes will be on the Hawkeye state this election season as many political strategists are saying that one of the two - Obama or Romney - will need the Iowa's vote to win the race for the White House.

What do you think? Have you made up your mind yet? Who is most likely, in your opinion, to be president in November? Cast your vote and leave a comment telling us why you support either candidate.

So far the vote is close, which mirrors polling in the state. What are the reasons you've chosen a candidate, Iowans?

Steve, it's obvious you don't know what a dictator is. I'm as free as I ever was, and so are you.

Coincidentally, Steve, I too just came from the doctor's office, and guess what.
I'm still free!

I just came from interviewing volunteers calling people to vote for Obama. Guess what they told me?: Democrats plan to vote for Obama. Republicans don't. Independents are undecided. So, if you're an Independent, you're probably pretty important to both parties right now
