Elections in Guam |

![]() |
The 1980 United States presidential straw poll in Guam was the first presidential straw poll held in Guam on November 4, 1980.[1] Guam is a territory and not a state. Thus, it is ineligible to elect members of the Electoral College, who would then in turn cast direct electoral votes for president and for vice president.[2] To draw attention to this fact, the territory conducts a non-binding presidential straw poll during the general election as if they did elect members to the Electoral College.[3]
Democratic Party nominee and incumbent president Jimmy Carter won the poll with over 55% of the vote.
