New Michigan poll (Mitchell Research,C-) Biden +10, Peters +6
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Formers Vice President Joe Biden (51%) leads President Donald Trump (41%) by a 10 percent margin in Michigan while US Senator Gary Peters (49%) has a narrower 6 percent lead over challenger John James (43%) in the race for the US Senate according to a poll conducted by Mitchell Research Communications of likely voters in the upcoming November 3rd Election.
The poll, commissioned by MIRS, a Lansing based publication, used a combination of IVR (automated) surveys as well as live operator calls to voters under the age of 45. The survey of N=900 Likely Voters was conducted on October 18, 2020 has a Margin of Error of + or – 3.27% at the 95% level of confidence.
“President Trump won Michigan four years ago by just 10,000 votes, but he appears to be in trouble this year. He is only getting 91% of the voters who voted for him four years ago, while 98% of Clinton’s voters are voting for Biden. Trump is getting only 89% of the GOP vote, while Biden is getting 95% of the Democrats. Biden has a big 2:1 lead with independents (54%-27%). All this make Michigan in the Biden camp now, but as we saw four years ago, as lot can happen in the last 15 days,” Steve Mitchell, president of Mitchell Research said
