Well, yes, he was the only Democrat running. 
So our long election journey has begun with this one step. The Republican National Convention will be in Tampa, Florida in August. The Democratic National Convention will be in Charlotte, North Carolina in September. In November the American people will be persuaded to re-elect Barack Obama, President of the United States!

Oh, BTW, there were victories on the Republican side of the aisle:
- Mitt Romney wins 1st place, 25% of the vote winning by 8 votes
- Rick Santorum wins 2nd place at 25%
- Ron Paul wins 3rd place at 21%
