So the results of DFA's 2008 pulse poll are in, and Rep. Dennis Kucinich took first with 32% of the vote. The other top contenders were (write-in candidate) former VP Al Gore with 25%, former Sen. John Edwards with 16%, and Sen. Barack Obama with 14%. All other candidates (including Sen. Hillary Clinton) finished below 5%.

DFA set up the poll as an instant-runoff-style poll that allowed respondents to rank their top 3 candidates. If Gore is removed from the poll, Edwards gets the biggest boost and moves up to 23% of the vote, but he still trails Kucinich by 13 points.
