Wallace wins Michigan primary on issue stance not sympathy
New York Times survey of 411 voters across 41 precincts finds Wallace carried Michigan mainly for opposition to busing, welfare, and taxes. Few said the assassination attempt influenced their vote, and only half of those switched to Wallace. Large share cited his issue positions.

Analysis of voter shifts in Times-Yankelovich survey
The survey finds Wallace benefited most from crossover voters with half his support from non Democrats. About a third of McGovern backers call themselves independents, many young first time voters. Humphrey drew almost no crossovers. Even with only Democrats, order remained similar though margins narrowed. Voters cite Vietnam as the top issue, with school busing close behind among Michigan interviewees.
