The latest polls out of Michigan are VERY encouraging for several Democratic House incumbents. My representative, Mark Schauer (MI-07), has opened up a six point lead on Republican Tim Walberg.
Nearby, in Michigan's ninth CD, Representative Gary Peters has built a five point lead over Republican Rocky Raczkowski.
This latest polling - by EPIC-MRA - is notable for several reasons. First, both candidates have trailed in their respective races. But both have closed fast during the past month and the momentum seems to be continuing.
