Voters in five major European countries showed a strong preference for
Barack Obama as their favourite candidate to win the United States
presidential elections, according to a poll published on Friday.
In a YouGov survey commissioned by the British newspaper Daily
Telegraph's website, 52 percent of respondents in Britain, France,
Germany, Italy and Russia said they would vote for the Democratic
front-runner if they could, against just 15 percent who said they
would vote for Republican nominee John McCain.
The numbers were, however, different from country to country. The
likely Democratic candidate held a 61-point lead in Germany, but was
practically on par with his Republican counterpart in Russia, where
Obama was leading by only 7 points. 70 percent of Italian respondents
said they would vote for the Democrat.
