New numbers from Rasmussen Reports show former Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) ahead by three before Michigan’s February 28th Republican primary, having erased former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s fifteen point lead in over then second place finisher former House Speaker Newt Gingrich in Ras’s numbers just two weeks ago. Santorum gets 35 percent, Romney 32, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) sees 13 and Gingrich is at 11. From Rasmussen:

At this point, 52% of Michigan primary voters are certain of their vote, showing no change over the past two weeks. Forty percent (40%) could still change their minds before the primary. Fifty-eight percent (58%) of Santorum’s supporters are certain of their vote, as are 57% of Romney backers, 61% of Paul supporters and 50% of Gingrich voters.

The current TPM Poll Average of the Michigan Republican primary shows Santorum with a lead over six points.
