LANSING, MI — A polling average from Real Clear Politics has Trump winning Michigan.
The latest forecast on the Republican end places Trump at 37.3 percent, followed by John Kasich at 25 percent, Ted Cruz at 19 percent and Marco Rubio at 10 percent.
On the Democratic side, that polling average has Hillary Clinton at 58.7 percent of the vote and Bernie Sanders at 37.3 percent.
A Mitchell/FOX 2 Detroit poll released Monday night had the candidates in that order but had Trump at 41 percent, Kasich at 23 percent, Cruz at 18 percent and Rubio at 8 percent.
The automated poll was of 472 Michigan voters, conducted March 7 with a +/- 4.5 percent margin of error at the 95 percent confidence level.
In another poll, Clinton is beating Sanders by an even wider range.
The Mitchell/FOX 2 Detroit poll has Clinton winning big over Sanders, 61 to 34 percent. That’s based on a survey of 482 likely primary voters taken March 7 with a +/- 4.46 margin of error at the 95 percent confidence level.
Both Republican and Democratic candidates have campaigned in Michigan within the last week, kicking off with the Republican GOP Debate in Detroit last Thursday. The Democratic candidates squared off in Flint on Sunday for a debate, where viewers surveyed said Sanders made the best impression.
