Question

Which candidate got more votes Sarah Palin for Mayor or Joe Biden for President.?

Answer 1

You need to limit your definitions.

Biden received 0 delegates for the nomination, but that's not the total number of votes cast for Biden.  All told, he received around 79,000 votes during the primaries (granted, the majority of those votes were received after he dropped out of the race simply because his name wasn't removed from the ballots).  

Considering Wasilla has a population less than 10,000, I hope Biden received more.

Answer 2

Great question. Huckabee just gave the answer at the RNC during his speech on TV.

Answer 3

Joe Biden got more votes. He received over 15,000 votes in Florida alone. Since Wasilla has less than 10,000 people in total population I don't see how she could have garnered more votes than Biden.

Answer 4

Joe Biden.

Answer 5

Most of you are idiots. Look at Huckabee's quote: "got more votes running for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, than Joe Biden got running for president of the United States." Last time I checked, Obama was running for president. It's hilarious how many of the people on blogs and even journalists are posting the numbers that Palin received for her bid and what Biden received for his attempt at the NOMINATION. It doesn't matter what numbers Biden posted for his bid at the presidential nomination. That's not what Huckabee was stating. He was simply joking about the fact that Biden lost the nomination for president, therefore he has already lost the presidential bid, receiving 0 votes. Wow, take a joke.

Answer 6

Joe Biden for president received more votes with 2,328 in the January 2008 Iowa Primary. Sarah Palin, in her two runs for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, garnered 1,659 votes. However, in her tenure on city council, including holding the mayor's office, Palin secured 2,503 votes from 1992-1999.

Answer 7

SHE'S A CRAZY REPUBLICAN AND A FEMALE..THATS ALL I NEED TO KNOW

Answer 20

Sarah Palin got 73.6 % of the votes when she ran for Mayor of Wasilla.  On January 3, 2008, Biden placed fifth in the Iowa caucuses, garnering slightly less than one percent of the state delegates and withdrew his candidacy that evening.

Answer 21

Biden had less than 1 per cent of the votes in the Iowa primaries while Palin had more than 80 per cent!!!!

Answer 22

Biden has more people in his home state than those who live and voted for Palan 120,000 votes 46%).
