A Detroit News poll conducted after the second presidential debate shows Hillary Clinton up by almost 12 percentage points over Donald Trump in Michigan.

According to The Detroit News poll conducted Monday and Tuesday, Clinton garnered 42.2 percent of support from likely voters, compared to Trump’s 30.6 percent. Third-party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein received 10.3 percent and 4.6 percent, respectively. In a one-on-one race, 47 percent of supporters favored Clinton and 33 percent preferred Trump.
