warning..your poll may change daily without notice wouldnt it be nice if all parties elected worked together for you instead of spending their time blocking each others ideas..

The only reliable polls are elections and they are only samplings of a certain day. Indeed the LIBRANO supporters seem to reject the results of the last election much like Mugabe....
In my view these push polls are as reliable as lie dectectors and "the science" of GW.
It was been long established that voters poll one way and vote another.

alot of polls have come out , if you average them out the conservatives pretty much always have the lead over dion's liberals . dion hasn't been seen as in effective opposition leader yet alone an alternative government .

what would be more useful, is to know how many people are prepared to swing their vote to whoever runs a better election campaign

IMO, Dion will not do well in an election campaign.

that would be interesting to know , mean its so early alot have not really decided anyways or could change depending on campaign or local candidates .

the liberal numbers are only surviving because of support in the GTA /toronto area , if not for that they'd be pretty low in the polls

take a poll in toronto ...wonder how that will turn out? on in ontario for that matter...

We can automatically say Toronto will vote Liberal or NDP no matter who the nominate, just like most Albertans will vote Conservative. Remember how decimated the Conservatives were back in 93. Conservative voters have on occassion rebelled against their party for their fuckups whereas Toronto Liberal supporters will overwhelmingly forgive the Liberals for anything they do.

as will most of the east coast.. and esp Newfoundland.. I have said it before give them enough rope and the torys will hang themselves.. what the voters didnt want was the Reform Party and basically thats what we have with the current tory regime.. reformers with a autocratic leader..

well the liberals would lead in toronto for sure , ontario is a closer race with conservatives doing better in small town ridings .

but part of the liberals problem is that there almost too toronto centric so leading in toronto really means little difference anyways . its sort of like same as conservatives leading in alberta it doesn't exactly surprise anyone who make a difference in seat totals
