Here's what the poll by Lake Research had to say:
"The poll indicates that the battle to replace U.S. Rep. Gary Peters (D-Bloomfield Twp.) is a two-person race. The MI-14 covers eastern Detroit, as well as Oakland County cities including Pontiac, Southfield and Farmington Hills.
"Lawrence took 35% of the vote in a four-way matchup and Clarke had 27%. Rep. Rudy Hobbs (D-Southfield) placed third in the poll with 6%. Burgess Foster, who has run Detroit City Council and the state House, was last with 0%. That leaves one-third of the electorate -- 32% -- undecided."
Peters is giving up the House seat to run for U.S. Senate against Republican Terri Lynn Land.
The Democrat-leaning 14th District is an S-shaped district starting in Pontiac in and ending in Detroit.
