Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Mike Bloomberg holds 7-point lead on Trump in Michigan, poll shows
Detroit Free PressWASHINGTON – Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg is running an atypical campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, avoiding the early voting states and instead pouring millions into TV ads and hiring staff in other places.
A new poll indicates it may be working in Michigan.
Bloomberg has opened a 7-point lead in a head-to-head matchup with President Donald Trump in the state, according to a poll released Wednesday by EPIC-MRA of Lansing that shows the former mayor gaining ground with independents, moderates and other key constituencies.
His 49%-42% lead is the largest among all the Democrats, though 9% remain undecided with voting for the Democratic nomination getting underway in Iowa on Feb. 3. Michigan's primary is March 10.
