    MI-Sen Poll Watch: Dem Sen Debbie Stabenow Looking Better for Re-Election?

    Yes, according to the latest PPP Poll.

    Favorable Vs. Unfavorable:

    • Sen. Debbie Stabenow –  46% Vs. 39% (41% vs. 40% in December)
    • Terri Lynn Land – 37% Vs. 19%, GOP – 55% Vs. 7%
    • Pete Hoekstra – 30% Vs. 28%, GOP – 52% Vs. 9%
    • Saul Anuzis – only 20% know enough about for an opinion
    • Randy Hekman – only 17% of voters claim an opinion

    Head to Head:

    • Stabenow – 48% Vs. Land – 38%
    • Stabenow – 50% Vs. Hoekstra – 38%
    • Stabenow – 52% Vs. Anuzis – 35%
    • Stabenow – 52% Vs. Hekman – 33%

    It looks like this Michigan Senate seat will not be in GOP cross-hairs in 2012. With a large 2012 African-American turnout to re-elect President Obama, the GOP will be faced with insurmountable Democratic registration numbers in this blue state.

    For the past few election cycles, with a poor economic climate in Michigan and the loss of jobs, Republicans also hope for a pick-up of some sort.

    Won’t happen in 2012.
