MI Gov Poll: GOP Leads Most Matchups

Public Policy Polling's (D) latest survey in Michigan (890 RVs, 5/25-27, MoE +/- 3.3%) finds the GOP well-positioned for a pickup there.

General Election Matchups
Bouchard (R) 39 -- Bernero (D) 34 -- Und 27
Bouchard (R) 38 -- Dillon (D) 29 -- Und 33

Cox (R) 38 -- Bernero (D) 36 -- Und 27
Cox (R) 40 -- Dillon (D) 32 -- Und 27

George (R) 30 -- Bernero (D) 31 -- Und 39
George (R) 32 -- Dillon (D) 31 -- Und 38

Hoekstra (R) 41 -- Bernero (D) 34 -- Und 25
Hoekstra (R) 41 -- Dillon (D) 32 -- Und 27

Snyder (R) 44 -- Bernero (D) 28 -- Und 28
Snyder (R) 46 -- Dillon (D) 26 -- Und 28

Rick Snyder, of "one tough nerd" ad fame, performs best in the field, notable given he is the only candidate not serving in elected office. PPP's poll of the primary showed him leading the GOP pack as well.

PPP finds that the field of Democrats looking to replace Gov. Jennifer Granholm (D) "suffer from their lack of name recognition and attention paid to the primary." More than 70 percent of voters haven't heard of either -- Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero or state House Speaker Andy Dillon.

RCP rates the race as Lean Republican.
