Toronto Centre By-election: Could Be A Tight Race With Support For Linda McQuaig, NDP, Rising
In the latest poll, Liberal candidate Crystia Freeland leads with 46% support, and the NDP candidate Linda McQuaig is second with 35% support.
Looking at only those numbers, it seems like the election is a sure thing for the Liberals. However, when we look at the way the numbers are trending, things look much closer.
In the last 3 Forum polls we see that
Liberal support went from 49% to 45% to 46% - dropped and then levelled off.
while the NDP support went from 25% to 30% to 35% - rising continually.
If the trend continues, we could see a solid swath of NDP MPs right across downtown Toronto.
