A new poll shows Texas Governor Rick Perry in the top spot among all the Republican presidential hopefuls.
The CNN/ORC International Poll indicates Perry has the support of 27-percent of Republican and right-leaning independent voters across the nation.
Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney trails at 14-percent followed by undeclared GOP candidate Sarah Palin at 10-percent.
The poll shows much of Perry's support is among Republican voters aligned with the conservative Tea Party movement.
His supporters also tend to be older people with higher incomes.
