As attorney Geoffrey Fieger considers another gubernoatiral bid, a new poll finds he would be the favorite in the Aug. 3 Democratic primary. The EPIC-MRA survey (April 21, 400 Dem LV, MoE +/- 4.9%) found Fieger, best known for representing assisted-suicide doctor Jack Kevorkian, leading three other Dems with 28% of the vote.

The other Democrats tested include: House Speaker Andy Dillon, Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero and state Rep. Alma Wheeler. Fieger received much of his support in the three Detroit-area counties of Oakland, McComb and Wayne. Dillon held a small lead among voters not within those counties.

Fieger 28
Dillon 20
Bernero 13
Wheeler 8
Und 29

As the Detroit Free Press reports, Fieger needs "to move quickly, with less than three weeks left to collect the 15,000 valid petition signatures required to put his name on the Aug. 3 primary ballot."
