A new poll conducted by Democratic firm GBAO on behalf of Sean McCann's campaign shows the Michigan state senator leading incumbent Republican Rep. Bill Huizenga by three points in their House race. The poll also found that nearly 60% of respondents disapprove of Trump's job as president. McCann has significantly outraised Huizenga in fundraising, bringing in almost $400,000 more in the first quarter of 2026 for a total exceeding $1 million. Huizenga won his seat by nearly 12 points in 2024 and has been a priority target for House Democrats' campaign efforts.
