Jeb Bush Won't Be on CPAC Straw Poll

Asked not be be included

|


Jeb Bush got headlines last week when he opened the door to a presidential run, after years of insisting he was not interested.

So it's of some note that when CPAC attendees at the annual gathering outside Washington this week go to vote in the group's straw poll for 2016, they will not find his name on the ballot. Why not? Because he asked not to be on it, according to the Conservative Political Action Conference. (Bush's spokeswoman confirmed this to CNN.)
