Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Top Democrats all lead in head-to-head matchups with Trump in Michigan
https://www.freep.com/story/news/politics/elections/2019/08/28/poll-joe-biden-top-democrats-lead-trump-michigan/2131868001/WASHINGTON – All of the top Democrats running for president next year appear to hold leads over President Donald Trump in Michigan, according to a new poll that also indicates that as many as 20% of Republicans could be looking to vote for someone else.
In a poll made public Wednesday morning, EPIC-MRA of Lansing said former Vice President Joe Biden had a 51% to 41% lead over Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head matchup in Michigan, which Trump won in 2016 by a slim margin.
But while Biden's 10-point lead — more than double the 4-percentage-point margin of error in the poll — is the largest lead posted by a Democrat in the poll, Biden isn't the only one with an edge over the sitting Republican president.
EPIC-MRA's poll indicated that the three other top candidates running — U.S. Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Kamala Harris of California — all lead Trump, though by smaller margins.

Warren, who has seen big improvements in national polls in recent months, leads Trump 49%-43% and Sanders, who was the Democratic runner-up to Hillary Clinton for the nomination in 2016, leads Trump 48%-44%. Harris holds a slimmer 46%-43% edge.
