A new poll released this week shows Democrat Mark Schauer gaining ground in the race to unseat Republican Gov. Rick Snyder in Michigan‘s gubernatorial race.

Market Resource Group, a Lansing, Mich.-based company, found that among likely voters Snyder leads Schauer 44.6 percent to 44.3 percent. The virtual tie is a stark contrast from MRG’s last poll released in March that had Snyder up eight points over his Democratic challenger.
