Poll: Excluding Democrats, Bush Would Have Won Michigan

(CNSNews.com) - According to a Detroit News survey based on exit polling, "party crashers" offset Michigan's Republican base to give Senator John McCain the Michigan primary victory over Texas Governor George W Bush. The poll found that without Democrats, Bush would have won Michigan with 48 percent of the vote to McCain's 44 percent. Fully half of the voters taking part in the open Republican primary were Democrats (18 percent) and political independents (33 percent). As it turned out, McCain captured 77 percent of the non-GOP votes, including 66 percent of Independents and 86 percent of Democrats. But Bush clobbered McCain among the GOP faithful, winning those votes by a 66 to 27 percent margin. Detroit News pollsters predict McCain will have much more trouble in upcoming closed Republican primaries, where only registered Republicans can vote for Republican candidates.
