Poll: Stabenow maintains double-digit lead over James in Senate race
U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow maintains a double-digit lead over Republican opponent John James in her bid for a fourth term in the Senate, according to a new survey.
Stabenow, a Lansing Democrat, leads James by 18 percentage points, with nearly 53 percent of support, compared with James' 35 percent. About 10 percent of voters were undecided.
The poll of 600 likely Michigan voters, conducted Sept. 30 to Oct. 2 for The Detroit News and WDIV, had a margin of error of plus-minus 4 percentage points.
The results are similar to those of a poll conducted in the race in early September, when Stabenow had 55.5 percent of support to 33 percent for James, a Republican businessman and Iraq veteran from Farmington Hills.
