Two key Michigan congressional races in the 8th and 11th districts, where Democrats hoped to flip Republican seats, now appear to be too close to call, new polls reveal.

A poll conducted from Oct. 15 to Oct. 17, just weeks before the Nov. 6 midterms, by Michigan market research firm Target-Insyght/MIRS found incumbent Rep. Mike Bishop, (R-Rochester) ahead of his Democrat opponent, Elissa Slotkin, by 3 percentage points, falling within the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
