POLL: Trump trails 2020 Democratic contenders in Michigan

[Warlord]

In the crucial swing state of Michigan, President Trump trails all of his Democratic challengers that were asked about in a new EPIC-MRA of Lansing poll released Wednesday.

The survey flashes a warning sign for Trump, whose path to reelection likely runs through Midwestern states like Michigan that historically vote Democratic but backed his 2016 bid against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Trump’s largest deficit in the poll is against former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, whom he trails by a 49 percent to 42 percent margin. He also trails former Vice President Joe Biden 50 percent to 44 percent, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) 50 percent to 45 percent, former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg 47 percent to 43 percent and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) 48 percent to 45 percent.

Trump's differences compared to Buttigieg and Warren fall within the poll’s margin of error.

Trump is dragged down by an underwater approval rating, with 43 percent of likely Michigan voters polled giving him a positive rating as president and 55 percent saying they’d give him a negative one.

The poll also showed little wiggle room for the president to improve his standing in Michigan, with no more than 10 percent of voters in any of the match-ups saying they had not yet made up their minds.

Michigan is expected to be a chief battleground state in the presidential race after Trump defeated Clinton there by just 11,000 votes in 2016, marking the first time since 1988 that the Wolverine State voted for a Republican presidential candidate.

When voters were asked if they would definitely vote to reelect Trump or definitely vote against him if the election were today, 44 percent said they would replace him and 34 percent said they would back him. Another 19 percent said they would consider voting for someone else, and only 3 percent were undecided.

The EPIC-MRA of Lansing poll surveyed 600 active and likely Michigan voters from Jan. 9-12 and has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.

This could be good news for Justin Amash if the discontent spread to his district.

What are you talking about?

4 years ago, they had Hillary beating Trump by like 15+ points in the polls.

Trump's slaughter meter against an of the Democratic contenders is currently at 100%.

I am in a heavy red area, dems don't even bother getting on the ballot, and the coffee shop farming crowd isn't so happy with the stable genius. His actions forcing farmer welfare have not been popular. But so many just vote straight party that it may not matter around here no matter how unpopular his policies actually are or who the contender is.

Hey folks. I wouldn't listen to one poll especially now.

As objective as possible, Trump is the POTUS for the next 4 years. There are some things like the MSM and the DNC that are even more disastrous than Trumps administration.
