EDIT: What CC said
During the last campaign, they were polling anywhere from low 30s in early September to low 40s just before the election. They ended up getting 38% in the election, so this is pretty much right on par. Other interesting things:
Not really much change in BC.
NDP take a huge hit in Sask and Manitoba.
Big gains for the Conservatives in Ontario,
Slight drop for the Conservatives (statistically insignificant) in Quebec, while the Liberals are up slightly there.
In Atlantic Canada, NDP support is way down, but both Conservatives and Liberals make gains.
Greens up everywhere except for Alberta and Atlantic Canada, but they always poll better than their actual voting returns.
