Conservatives leap ahead in new Postmedia election poll

A new poll shows the Conservative Party is by far the most popular among Canadian voters. The poll was done by Mainstreet Research for Postmedia. It suggests Prime Minister Harper and the Tories received a sharp boost in popularity as a result of the enhanced Universal Child Care Benefit. Among decided voters, the Conservatives lead with 38 per cent support, followed by the NDP at 27 per cent and the Liberals at 25 per cent. The Green party is at six per cent (the Bloc Québécois is at four per cent). One in five voters (20 per cent) remains undecided. Ottawa Citizen
