The Polls, The Polls.....
Been doing some research this morning on the polls. Every polling firm puts the conservatives out in front, no question......but none of these polls seem to show the undecided portion of the electorate. Decima has done a poll that shows much of the undecided vote leaning towards the liberals. I'm suspect on most of these polls......most seem to put the undecided vote at between 8% and 14%. Also most polls are including what they call "leaners" in the numbers for the respective parties.I'm not fully convinced Harper's numbers are as strong as the CPC would like us to believe, as far as a possible majority, unless most of the leaners, and undecided go his way. I may be proven wrong 8 days from now.....but unless something dramatic happens I simply do not see a majority in the cards. On the flip side of that, unless Haper does something extremely stupid.....I don't see the liberals forming a government....at this point i'm calling a CPC minority....
Correct me if I'm wrong but did'nt the undecided voters decide the last election as well?? Strange that none of the media outlets seem to be paying any attention to the undecided. Wonder why??
Either way this should prove to be a very intresting week....expect the rhetoric to be cranked up even more than it currently is and watch the fur fly!! Hold on tight!
