Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are both holding large leads as the Michigan Presidential Primary grows closer, according to new polling from Mitchell and FOX 2.
The latest poll from Mitchell/FOX 2 Detroit shows Donald Trump is maintaining a sizable lead over other Republican hopefuls but Ohio Governor John Kasich is gaining some ground.
Trump`s 2:1 margin of the vote is now almost 4:1. Trump (41%) is at the top with his three closest rivals Ohio Governor John Kasich (11%), Texas U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (11%) and Florida U.S; Senator Marco Rubio (10%) bunched in a tie for second in the latest Mitchell/FOX 2 Detroit. The poll was conducted after Monday's debate in South Carolina.

Perhaps more than any other state, Michigan is ready to dump free trade.
Oh my. Chalk another state up for Trump. Looks like the battle is for 2nd place with Cruz barely hanging onto 3rd.
I guess these voters arent reading the VOLUMINOUS articles posted here in FR about how bad Trump is.
Pity them.
CW & Friends should maybe go on tour.
Get the word out.
Another poll not to be mentioned by Beck, Rush or Levin.
“Michigan is ready to dump free trade.”
Huh?
BEAUTIFUL............Go the heck home CRUZ the Loser.
Just another unfortunate result of the decades long dumbing down of America.
No TPP, no NAFTA, etc.
That is why Michigan is going for Trump.
But but...Trump hit his ceiling months ago. How is this possible????
Figuress,...Mitchell/FOX 2 Detroit. Detroit has’t been worth a #%&*# since JLHudson and BOBLO Island closed.
Well, whaddaya expect? Michigan is full of liberals who support abortion and gun control, just like Trump does.
No, no, this is all wrong. The WSJ/NBC are the only ones who are being honest...
Cruz is a Cruise MissedIt, by that “ “ much.
GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said that he would vote against the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal between the United States and 11 other countries on Friday while campaigning in Iowa.
According to the Des Moines Register, Cruz said he is "deeply concerned" with the trade pact.
"While Cruz said he supports free trade, he believes the Trans Pacific Partnership would undermine U.S. immigration laws and the nation's sovereignty," reported the Des Moines Register.
"There are a number of Republicans on that (debate) stage who support TPP, who support (the Trade Promotion Authority)," Cruz stated. "I voted against TPA and I intend to vote against TPP." ..."

MI just approved RTW. The unions are powerless here now.
Michigan shares a short border with Ohio. Kasich only has 11% in an adjacent state where he’s a known commodity. One would assume that they’re rejecting him out of knowledge, not a lack of it.
It’s obvious, Trump has peaked and it’s downhill from here on. (sarc)
There wouldn’t be a TPP deal to vote against if Cruz hadn’t helped cram through TPA authority. It’s a stupid political trick that everybody is on to.
MI is closer/inclined to Indiana now. Both states are RTW.
MI is more pro-gun than Texas!
