Bread crumbs in the polls may point to a likely victory by Donald Trump over Kamala Harris in the swing state of Michigan, nationally known pollster Steve Mitchell says.
“There’s been a major realignment in Michigan and national politics, with former Democrats now becoming Republicans and former Republicans becoming Democrats,” Mitchell, president of Mitchell Research & Communications Inc., told The Daily Signal.
One of the most hotly contested swing states, Michigan may determine the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. Voters have eight choices for president on the Nov. 5 ballot, including former President Trump, Vice President Harris, independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Green Party candidate Jill Stein, and libertarian Chase Oliver.
In the eight-way race, Trump and Harris are in a dead heat in the polls. In a two-way race, which isn’t what is on the Michigan ballot, Trump has a one-point lead over Harris, according to Mitchell’s latest poll.
But, Mitchell said, polls about voters’ support for Trump can be skewed because “shy” voters won’t admit they’re voting for him, even through online polling platform SurveyMonkey.
One way to get around that hesitancy, he said, is to ask for whom most of the person’s “friends and neighbors” are voting.
