Former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden in the key battleground state of Michigan by 7 points, according to a poll reported by The Detroit News on Wednesday.
In the state that Trump won in 2016 but lost to Biden in 2020, he beat the president 42% to 35%, with 20% saying they’d vote for someone else and 3% opting not to pick a candidate, according to a Marketing Resource Group (MRG) survey. When the Democratic candidate was changed to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, she beat Trump 46% to 40% — a 13-point swing from the matchup with Biden.
“It tells me that Biden has a problem, not necessarily the Democrats,” Jenell Leonard, GOP consultant and owner of MRG, told The Detroit News of the numbers. “If the base doesn’t show up, they could likely see themselves in the same situation as they saw in 2016.”
Several recent polls have suggested that Biden would win by several points in Michigan, according to FiveThirtyEight’s survey compilation. An early August Emerson College survey indicated that in a head-to-head matchup, Trump and Biden were tied at 44%, but in a three-way race with independent candidate Cornel West, the former president won by 2 points.
Trump became the first Republican presidential candidate in decades to win Michigan in 2016, where he narrowly beat Hillary Clinton 47.6% to 47.3%, according to Politico. In 2020, the state swung back to the Democrats, with Biden winning by nearly 3 points.
The MRG survey polled 600 likely Michigan voters from Oct. 2 to Oct. 8 with a margin of error of plus or minus 4%.
Neither Trump nor Biden immediately responded to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comment.
What a load of BS!
The Detroit Cheat Machine will take care of that silly poll
<,p>Last month, Trump skipped the GOP debate clown show to deliver remarks to auto workers in Michigan
A new poll finds him up SEVEN points over Joe Biden in the Great Lakes state

I don’t doubt Trump is up in that state - and won Michigan in 2020.
There was a lot of vote fraud out of Michigan, ballot dumping in the middle of the night, etc. And until and unless vote fraud is taken care of, Biden will fraudulently win the state again in 2024.
The betting odds already assume that the Rats will make a switch from Biden to someone else https://electionbettingodds.com/PresidentialParty2024.html
The odds still have a two-in-three chance of Biden being nominated, but I am willing to bet that about two-thirds of the Dem win scenarios, which presently are the majority of the scenarios, have someone other than Biden winning. I suspect Biden is the person most likely to finish second on Nov. 4th.
Other is running third as the Dem nominee at 6.6%, and if I thought the markets sane, would be the place to sink some spare money.
I seriously doubt it.
Doesn’t matter, blue state, election is fixed.
Looks like every state has had it’s fill of the taste on Marxism and poverty.
The next year will be so horrific it should seal the deal. Go Trump!
Agree
With the polls (that always slanted against Republicans) showing Trump up by big numbers the best way to help us win back our country is to volunteer for training as Poll Watchers.
Trump should end every rally with a call for 5 million poll watchers.
The way to beat the cheat is feet on the streets.
Nice.
So what was your Freeptard name when Trump won Michigan in 2016, lame newbie? Meow.
Earlier today, Emerson had Trump up 7 in PA.
Now, I think these numbers are way high. BUT . . . the trend is very clear. I think Trump right now is up in both states, and probably getting close to being outside the margin of fraud.
BTW, in PA, new voter reg #s came out. GOP outregistered Ds SEVEN TO ONE.
The border situation, illegals now stressing Dem cities, and the latest attacks in Israel are making people think about what the future holds.
What’s happening in Israel right now is a horrific situation. And Trump needs to rub the Dem party’s nose in it as deep as he can.
you want to place a bet that I’m correct in 24??
Rub, baby, rub.
