    Re: Polling on the Michigan Senate and Gubernatorial Election

    Date: October 2, 2014

    A new Lake Research Partners survey among 600 likely 2014 general election voters in

    Michigan1shows Democrats in a strong position for victory in November. Both Gary Peters

    and Mark Schauer have improved their position over the last month.Peters leads Terri Lynn

    Land by 9 points in the U.S. Senate race 45% to 36%, with 18% of voters undecided. This is

    an improvement over the 4-point lead Peters held last month.

    Vote for Michigan U.S. Senate

    The Governors race is very competitive, and the race has now closed to a 1-point margin.

    Rick Snyder leads Mark Schauer 44% to 43%, well within the margin of error, with 12% of

    voters still undecided. This is an improvement over the 8-point lead Snyder held last month.

    Vote for Michigan Governor

    The new poll shows clearly that Gary Peters is well on his way to becoming Michigans next

    U.S. Senator, and Mark Schauer has closed the gap in a very competitive gubernatorial

    election.
