WATCH: Fox News Digital focus group reacts live to Trump on accepting election results

Democrat viewers sour on Trump's response to whether he would accept the 2024 election results.

A new poll released over the weekend shows former President Trump holding a four-point lead over President Biden in Michigan. 

The EPIC-MRA poll, released Saturday, shows that in a matchup between Trump and Biden, 49% of survey respondents said they would vote for the Republican and 45% said they would vote for the Democrat. 

The survey, with a margin of error of plus or minus 4%, was conducted between June 21 and June 26, days before Biden’s widely criticized debate performance.

Favorability for Trump and Biden dipped slightly when third-party candidates were factored in. Trump dropped to 41% and Biden to 38%.
