Myers Research & Strategic Services for Mark Schauer (9/23-24, likely voters, 5/8-15 in parens):
Mark Schauer (D): 42 (37)
Tim Walberg (R-inc): 36 (40)
(MoE: ±4.4%)
Schauer posts another lead over Walberg, whose job approval rating (34-46) is still in the dumps. Looks like the money spent by Patriot Majority and the DCCC here has had some effect.
The full polling memo is available below the fold. SSP currently rates this race as a Tossup.
for backing Walberg with $1,000,000 against the relatively moderate Republican Joe Schwarz.
Thanks, Club for Growth!
would this be a seat that we would be able to hold for a long time with him? The district’s history seems fairly Republican.
I’d probably place MI-07 in third, after CO-07 and AK-AL in the category of republican incumbents most at risk of losing.
