A new poll of likely Michigan voters shows former Vice President Joe Biden beating President Trump in the state by 3 percentage points, 49 percent to 46 percent.
The Crooked Media/Change Research poll shows half of Biden's lead in a hypothetical November showdown comes from those who either didn't vote in 2016, or voted third party. Trump notably won Michigan in 2016, defeating Hillary Clinton 47.5 percent to 47.3 percent.
