Michigan AG Race Too Close to Call

The race for the Michigan attorney general is tightening with the Republican incumbent Bill Schuette holding onto a four-point lead over Democrat Mark Totten in the closing days of the campaign, according to a new statewide poll.

Schuette leads 37.8 percent-33.5 percent lead over Totten, with 21 percent still undecided about who they will support in the race that has slung some arrows over Totten's qualifications for the office and Schuette's effectiveness in his job. The Detroit News-WDIV (Local 4) poll has a margin of error of plus-minus four percentage points

"This is a race to keep your eyes on," said pollster Richard Czuba, president of the Chicago-based Glengariff Group.

Undecided voters could decide the race, Czuba said, given the high undecided vote between Schuette — a career politician and former judge — and Totten, a law professor at Michigan State University.
