Former President Donald Trump has taken a significant lead over President Joe Biden in Michigan, according to recent polls. The latest EPIC-MRA poll shows Trump leading Biden by 49% to 42%, a seven-point margin. This marks a notable shift from previous elections, where Biden led Trump by substantial margins. In 2020, Biden won Michigan by 2.8%, and in 2016, Trump lost by 0.3%. Trump is currently leading in every region of the state, including metro Detroit, which is traditionally a Democratic stronghold. In the Tri-County area (Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties), Trump leads 46% to 44%, a stark contrast to Biden's 56% to 40% victory in 2020. In a five-way race, Trump holds a 43%-36% edge. This development has increased pressure on Biden to reconsider his reelection bid.
