lenwick Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 Here's how the latest Decima numbers break down. First, the horse race: Liberals 33 per cent, Conservatives 26, NDP 22, and Bloc Quebecois 13. The survey of 1,028 Canadians from Nov. 11-14 left Liberal support unchanged from a week earlier, but the Tories were down four percentage points. NDP support has edged up in four of the last five weeks. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 per cent, 19 times out of 20. Decima also asked respondents how election timing would influence their voting behaviour. Under a January-February election scenario, Liberal support actually rose a point to 34 per cent, the Conservatives remained static at 26 and the New Democrats fell two points to 20 per cent. Some 58 per cent overall said they'd prefer an election in late March or early April - Prime Minister Paul Martin's preferred timetable. Just 28 per cent said they wanted a January or February date. http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/stor...?hub=TopStories Quote
crazymf Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 Is this poll nation wide? Quote The trouble with the legal profession is that 98% of its members give the rest a bad name. Don't be humble - you're not that great. Golda Meir
shoop Posted November 17, 2005 Report Posted November 17, 2005 So much for voter anger at an early election. The Bloc, NDs and Conservatives would all take those results over the uncertainty of allowing Martin to dictate the timing. Interesting how the ND support is up signigificantly from the last election while everyone else is down. Gotta make you wonder if those results are for real or just people *parking * their votes until election day... Quote
