NDP surges past Conservatives, Liberals in latest poll [View all]

Last edited Mon Aug 3, 2015, 06:05 PM - Edit history (1)

The New Democrats have surged to a double-digit lead in public support, gaining more distance over the other federal parties than they have at any time in the past two years, according to a new Forum Research poll.

About four in 10 Canadians surveyed (39 per cent) said they would cast their ballot for the NDP if an election were held today.

The Conservatives fell from neck-and-neck status with the NDP last week to 28 per cent of voter support Sunday, while the Liberals were steady at 25 per cent.

Projected onto an enlarged 338-seat House of Commons, the survey results indicate the NDP would command a solid minority of 160 seats — 10 short of a majority.

I guess the Harper bribe-bump was short lived.

I hope this team can keep it up for a grueling 11 weeks.
