DETROIT - Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by 9.4% among likely Michigan voters, according to a Local 4/Detroit News poll conducted after the Republican and Democratic national conventions.
The Glengariff Group, Inc. conducted a 600-sample, live operator telephone survey of likely November 2016 Michigan general election voters. The survey was conducted from July 30-August 1, 2016 and has margin of error of +/-4.0% with a 95% level of confidence. 65% of respondents were interviewed by landline telephone. 35% of respondents were interviewed by cell phone telephone.
Clinton led Trump 41% to 31.6% with 14.2% of those surveyed undecided in the survey. Libertarian Gary Johnson got 7.5% support from respondents, while Green candidate Jill Stein received 3.4% of the vote. Six respondents, or 1% of the vote, volunteered they would vote for Bernie Sanders. Sanders was not an option in the survey.
Michigan voters felt Clinton was more qualified to be president than Donald Trump and favored her on major issues. The survey found 57% of Michigan voters felt Clinton was qualified to be president, while 61.2% said Trump was not qualified to be president.
That media is doing their job.....right?She's leading by a similar amount in PA in a poll out today and by 15 in NH.
With the major party presidential conventions now behind them, candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are in a tug-of-war fight on the campaign trail. Here in Michigan, Republican nominee Trump has his work cut out for him.
If the election were held today, a brand new EPIC MRA Poll of eligible Michigan voters shows Democrat Clinton would win the race by 10 points, 46% to 36% with 17% undecided.
The survey, released first to WXYZ/Channel 7, the Detroit Free Press and our statewide media partners in Lansing, Flint and Grand Rapids, sampled 600 respondents.
The poll also matched the major political party candidates against Libertarian Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein. In that 4-way contest, Clinton leads by 11 points (43%) compared to Trump at 32%, as well as Johnson and Stein at 8% and 3%, respectively.
Trump is winning among independent men in Michigan; Clinton does the best among independent women.
In what has been a non-typical presidential campaign, Michiganders dislike Trump and Clinton more than they like them. Sixty-three percent give Trump an unfavorable rating, 30% give him a thumbs up. Clinton gets a 51% unfavorable rating, 41% approve of her.
Our statewide poll also asked likely November voters if they thought Michigan’s economy was improving. Fifty-five percent said yes, which closely resembled their thoughts in our March survey. Governor Rick Snyder’s job disapproval rate still lingers around 66%, improved just slightly from a dismal 69% in our spring 2016 poll. Only 32% believe he is doing a good job. And finally, the job rating for President Barack Obama is 52% negative and 47% positive.
The latest EPIC MRA survey was conducted July 30 – August 4 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.0%.
Yes, you can see the writing on the wall, and are already butthurt. You problem, you nominated the joker, now you are stuck with him. It is not the media that has created the difference between Trump and Clinton, but Trump's mouth. He has demonstrated rather amply he simply has not the temperament or ability to be President of the United States of America.That media is doing their job.....right?She's leading by a similar amount in PA in a poll out today and by 15 in NH.
Hillary should dump the debates and stop campaigning.....the media can do all of her talking for her. Forget about your guns and just give all of your cash to the government. This is how dictatorships work.
