Speaker of the House Tom Leonard continues to position himself as the Republican candidate most likely to win statewide in November.

According to a new poll from Steve Mitchell of Mitchell Research and Communications, Leonard only trails unhinged radical leftist Dana Nessel by 1%.

Here are the numbers:

Dana Nessel 34%
Tom Leonard 33%
Lisa Gioia 9% (Libertarian)
Chris Graveline 2% (Independent)

The survey, conducted from September 30-October 7, polled nearly 700 likely voters. With the margin of error, Nessel and Leonard are basically tied.

Mitchell says Leonard is well positioned to win, because 10% of Republicans have yet to decide, and Gioia is drawing voters from Nessel. 

Leonard is also destroying Nessel with Independent voters by a 3:1 margin, perhaps because of headlines about Nessel continually verbally abusing her employees.

Leonard thanked supporters in a Facebook statement.

"Thank you again for your continued support! Jenell, Hannah and I have been so blessed by so many of you," Leonard said. "Your volunteer hours, contributions, but most importantly, your prayers mean more than you know. (And they are working!) We are going to win this thing, but only because of your help. Let’s keep the momentum going!"
