Poll shows Trump leading among Michigan voters.
Former President Donald Trump Dominates Michigan Poll
According to a recent Mitchell Research and Communications poll, if the 2024 presidential election were held today, former President Donald Trump would emerge victorious in the battleground state of Michigan. Trump’s popularity among likely Michigan voters is overwhelming, with a staggering 69% of support.
Even his closest Republican rival, Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida, trails far behind with just 13% of support in Michigan. This significant gap of 56 points showcases Trump’s undeniable appeal and dominance within the GOP.
Trump’s Competitors Fall Far Behind
The poll reveals that all other Republican candidates are struggling to gain traction. Former Vice President Mike Pence secures a distant third place with a mere 3% of support. Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley fare even worse, garnering just 2% and 1% respectively. Meanwhile, 11% of voters remain undecided.
This eye-opening survey was conducted among general election voters from July 11 to 13, shortly before Trump made headlines by disclosing that he is the subject of a criminal investigation related to the events of January 6. Special counsel Jack Smith sent Trump a letter on Sunday, revealing the investigation.

Biden Maintains Lead, But Trump Closes In
Despite Trump’s strong showing, President Joe Biden still holds the lead in Michigan, a state he won in the 2020 election. The poll indicates that Biden currently enjoys the support of 50.6% of voters, while Trump trails closely behind at 43%. This puts Biden ahead by a slim margin of 2%.
Trump recently made a visit to Michigan in June, his first since announcing his third presidential run last year. During his visit, he was honored as the “Man of the Decade” at the Oakland County Republican Party’s Lincoln Day Dinner. It is worth noting that Oakland County is a county Trump has previously lost in two elections.
