New Michigan Poll - McCain Still Leading

With Mike Huckabee, John McCain, and Mitt Romney all spending their Saturday in Michigan, a new poll from Mitchell Interactive, has McCain leading Romney in the state.

McCain 23%
Romney 17%
Huckabee 11%
Paul 8%
Giuliani 8%

Jonathan Martin also reports that the ad war in Michigan is heating up with Romney and McCain spending roughly equal amounts of money on the air.

Romney, who has far out-spent McCain and all his GOP competitors on TV, has about $566,000 worth of spots up across six of the sprawling mitten state’s markets. But McCain has just shy of $537,000 behind his own Michigan ad campaign.

Both candidates have over 1,000 points in the pricey Detroit market which reaches the state’s southeastern population center (Romney has 1,285; McCain 1,087).

Lagging well behind McCain and Romney on the airwaves here is Mike Huckabee. He’s only got about $238,000 on Michigan TV, including under 400 points on Detroit.
