Mich. Prez Poll: Obama Leads McCain 54-38%

Detroit (AP)  -- A new poll shows Democrat Barack Obama leading John McCain in Michigan after the Republican candidate pulled his campaign from the state.

The Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday of 1,043 likely Michigan voters conducted Oct. 8 to Sunday showed Obama with 54 percent, McCain with 38 percent and 7 percent undecided.

The telephone poll conducted by the Hamden, Conn. school in partnership with The Wall Street Journal and the Web site of The Washington Post has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

A Quinnipiac poll of 1,364 likely Michigan voters in September showed Obama apparently leading McCain 48 percent to 44 percent. That poll's margin of sampling error was plus or minus 2.7 percentage points.
