Five weeks out from Ontario’s June 20, 2014 general election, Ipsos Reid has concluded that the Conservatives continue to lead in public support (39%). The poll, done for CTV, suggests support for the NDP has slipped further (24%) while support for the Wynne Liberals is unchanged (30%). It’s a rough numbers game so some curiosities may appear. The last Ipsos poll showed the Liberals at 31%, which would not leave them unchanged. But no matter. The PCs continue to evidence voters who are committed to vote, a good sign for them. But Ipsos says the Liberals also have traction with Liberal intended voters at 31% compared to PC intended voters support at 43%. It’s not really possible for laypersons to analyse just what this means but the general idea is there. The poll was done within the past 72 hours.
