New Strategic Vision Poll (MI Presidential Primary, Granholm approval)

I'm studying for mad crazy finals right now, but I wanted to quickly pass this along.

A new Strategic Vision poll of Michigan was released today, surveying the Presidential Primary field and some approval ratings. This is the first one we've had in almost a month.

Disapprove 66%
Undecided 9%

5. Do you favor an immediate withdrawal of the United States military forces from Iraq, within the six months?
Yes 49%
No 41%
Undecided 10%

7. Do you approve or disapprove of Governor Jennifer Granholm's job performance?

Sample size, survey dates, etc.

Results are based on telephone interviews with 1200 likely voters in Michigan, aged 18+, and conducted April 13-15, 2007. The margin of sampling error is ±3 percentage points.

I wish I could comment on all of this, but I simply don't have the time. I might do a follow-up analysis post in a few days.

I'll also update the Michigan poll data section when I get a chance.
