Quote:
Even now, the Republican race remains fluid. Just over half of likely voters in that race say they are very certain of their vote; the other 45 percent are undecided or could change their preference.Romney leads 27-24 percent among self-described Republicans, with Huckabee at 20 percent. Romney also leads in the three-county Detroit area, while McCain and Huckabee do better in the rest of the state. And among the nine percent of voters who said they had already voted by absentee ballot, Romney leads 3-to-1.
As expected, Huckabee is strongest among Christian conservatives and those who cite "values" as their most important criterion. About one in three voters described themselves as born-again or evangelical Christians, and Huckabee leads by a substantial margin with both groups. Most dramatically, he leads more than 3-to-1 among voters who say it matters a great deal that the candidate they vote for shares their values.
McCain aide John Yob, a Michigan native, said big crowds at his candidate's Michigan events have energized the campaign.
