Neither Michelle Obama nor Sarah Palin is running for office (yet), but the ladies did face off for votes recently in a national survey about… holiday decor. The poll—conducted by retailer HomeGoods—asked just over 1,000 Americans which celeb they’d most like to trim their tree, hang their mistletoe and deck their halls. The winner: Michelle, who landed 38 percent of the vote to Sarah’s 22 percent.

So, how would the ladies decorate? Well, we’ve already gotten a peek at the White House’s holiday decor, but what do you think Christmas at the Palin household looks like? Perhaps there’s a moose head wearing a Santa hat? And a tree trimmed with dancing shoe ornaments to mark Bristol Palin’s recent turn on Dancing with the Stars?

Of course, we can’t forget about the dark-horse candidate who gave Michelle and Sarah a run for their money. Playboy founder Hugh Hefner somehow nabbed 16 percent of the vote. Can you imagine the Hef (in robe, of course) hanging the mistletoe? Yikes.

Which star garnered the fewest respondents who would let her near their tree? Lady Gaga. I guess most people don’t want to see their boughs decked with steak!
