Romney Holds Edge in Michigan

A new Mitchell/Rosetta Stone poll in Michigan finds Mitt Romney with a small lead over Rick Santorum in the GOP presidential race, 36% to 33%, with Ron Paul at 12% and Newt Gingrich at 9%. Another 11% are still undecided.

Said pollster Steve Mitchell: “Romney has made big inroads with conservatives over the past ten days: 16% lead among Tea Party voters has been erased and he is now tied with them; his 16% lead with Evangelical Christians has now been cut in half to 8%, and Santorums 31% lead with self-identified conservatives has now been cut to 13%.”

A new Rasmussen poll shows Romney leading Santorum by six points, 40% to 34%.
