Raleigh, N.C. – Barack Obama is beginning the general election in Michigan with a 48- 39 lead, according to the newest survey from Public Policy Polling.
This is the second week in a row PPP has found Democrats in a large Midwestern state unifying around Obama since Hillary Clinton dropped out and endorsed him. Last week PPP showed Obama with a 50-39 edge in Ohio.
Michigan is the first state where PPP has found Obama doing a better job of keeping Democrats in the party (78-12) than McCain is of keeping Republicans in the fold (74- 19).
“Every new poll PPP does in a swing state provides more evidence that talk of long term Democratic disunity because of the drawn out contest between Barack Obama and
Hillary Clinton was over blown,” said Dean Debnam, President President of Public Policy Polling. “Those voters are almost all now supporting Obama.”
