"Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders is viewed more favorably by likely Michigan general election voters than either the Democratic or Republican presumptive nominee."

When Trump was matched against U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, who trails Clinton for the Democratic nomination, Sanders led the New York businessman by nearly 19 percentage points.

The telephone survey found Clinton and Trump are both equally unpopular in Michigan. Nearly 60 percent of polled voters view Trump unfavorably, and Clinton is not much better with 57 percent having an unfavorable view of her.

By contrast, Sanders has a slim popularity edge, with 43 percent viewing the democratic socialist favorably and 41 percent unfavorably.

Among the crucial independent voter bloc, 51 percent view Trump unfavorably and 69 percent dislike Clinton, according to the poll.

I don't know WTF the DNC is thinking.
