I can't say that any of those would be my first choice, but if I had to pick I would go with the second from the left.

The tie that is second from the left, because it should work with any personal coloring.

Not crazy about any of them, but the two on the left have some color, so I would favor one of them.

hmmm....i don't care for the tie contact_me posted.....doesn't have the "pop" I look for in neckties.

all of the ties you have seem to go with the navy suit-- but sometimes, matching a tie with a navy suit is harder than it looks. With a solid navy suit and a striped shirt I usually wear a conservative navy/red/silver striped tie from robert talbott best of class (a very republican lookin tie, but i add a pocket square) or a sharp Charvet with a light blue base or rich stripes.

here's one i would wear with that suit:

Second from left for me as well. Provides some sort of colour with your suit. Definetly dont go for the second from right.

I would go with a plain or textured tie, no stripes

Orange/rust, pink or red/burgundy

The two on the right don't seem to match the shirt. From the picture, they look like contrasting blues.

Are pocket squares anti-Republican?

Either of the two on the left, probably not the one on the right and DEFINATELY not the one second from the right.

And what is the occasion, that might help to get the most-definative answer.
