New Poll Puts Peters Up by 10

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released a Grove Insight poll of 400 likely voters conducted October 21 with a 4.9 percent margin of error showing that Gary Peters expanded his lead to ten over Congressman Joe Knollenberg 46-36 percent in an initial head-to-head matchup. Two percent selected Jack Kevorkian.

"Gary Peters continues to build momentum with his unprecedented ground game and message of creating jobs and getting Michigan's economy back on track," said Ryan Rudominer, Midwest Regional Press Secretary for the DCCC. "Despite his desperate campaign tactics, Michigan's middle class families are resoundingly rejecting Congressman Knollenberg for blindly following the failed Bush economic policies that led to the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression."
