A new Denno Research poll in Michigan finds Mark Schauer (D) has gained ground on Gov. Rick Snyder (R) in the gubernatorial race.
“Snyder still leads Schauer 42% to 39% — a statistical dead heat — but the governor’s track record of increasing overall education funding by $1 billion during his three years in office isn’t resonating with voters… Public perception that Snyder is spending less state money on education is consistent across party lines.”
