Conservatives continue to consolidate gains in key ridings

The Conservative Party is solidifying support in key battleground ridings surveyed by The Strategic Counsel, while Liberal and NDP voters indicate they are nearly twice more likely than Conservative voters to switch their support between now and the election.

The latest Battleground 2008 poll from The Strategic Counsel, conducted for CTV and The Globe and Mail, surveyed voters in key ridings in British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec.


They Conservatives also had a minor tick in Quebec, but that could be a margin of error deviation.

The Conservatives are doing well, let's hope the latest potential scandal won't affect them and that the Liberals continue to engage in fratricide.

The really interesting news in the latest poll results have the NDP surging in Quebec. Nano's also has the NDP and Liberals statistically tied in the province of Quebec.

Federalist vote splitting?

We're better off with Harper.

The N.D.P. doesn't have the workers on the ground except in a few ridings in Quebec. However the Bloc surge is worrisome. The art 'cuts' and '14-year-olds-in-prison' themes are working in Montreal at least. Harper should emphasize that the Federal Government is giving $21 million I believe (have to check the number) for the renovating and expansion of a wing of the Montreal Museum of Arts.

After all our work on the ground here, it would be stupid that we don't do better in Montreal and close ridings because of these two 'minor' issues. Also I don't think the car with the huge sign saying the Bloc isn't bringing results that the Conservatives put briefly in front of Duceppe's headquarters helped. Better to let the Bloc vote slip away without making a big deal of it.

In my opinion, the Strategic Council poll it the one to watch.

The Libs are in very deep trouble.

Looks good on 'em, too!

We are at the halfway mark. Have bounced off the majority ceiling twice.

Non-stop attacks from 4 parties, and still holding above 2006 election numbers. We are in good shape to close the deal.

The debates will expose Lizzy as a nutbar when she pleads with Canadians to not vote Green,
Dion unscripted will not go well,
Jack & Gilles will do ok, but will not have the same calm composure they had in the last couple of debates.

After the debates, the real game begins.
