The latest poll of Michigan voters shows Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton increasing her lead over Republican opponent Donald Trump to nine points among likely voters.
Clinton leads 41-32 in the latest Glengariff Group poll, conducted for the Detroit News and WDIV-TV shortly after the Democratic National Convention.
In the same poll, Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson polled at 8 percent and the Green Party’s Jill Stein received 3 percent of the vote.
Among the major party candidates, this poll shows an increase in popularity for Clinton in Michigan, compared to a May poll where she led Trump by four points in a head-to-head race by the same pollster.
The poll was conducted by Glengariff Group from July 30-Aug. 1 among 600 likely Michigan general election voters. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.
