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. 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.http://www.ballot-access.org/2008/07/10/guam-legislature-moves-general-election-presidential-vote-to-the-september-primary/ Guam Legislature Moves General Election Presidential Vote to the September Primary Ballot-Access.org July 10, 2008 February 19, 2020 The territory still participated in the U.S. presidential caucuses and primaries like the other states and territories.https://theworld.org/stories/2016/10/13/so-who-can-vote-us-elections Millions of Americans can't vote for president because of where they live PRI Maria Murriel en November 1, 2016 Democratic Party nominee Barack Obama won the poll with over 60% of the vote.http://www.upi.com/blog/2012/11/06/Obama-wins-In-Guam/4571352236156/ Obama wins!
