This morning the latest Harris-Decima was added to the projection (removing, where needed, the previous Harris-Decima poll that partly overlapped with some of the regional results in this newest release). The results of the update are a few seat gains for the Conservatives, and a few vote gains for the Liberals.

With a gain of two seats, the Conservatives now stand at 154, exactly half of the seats in the House of Commons. However, they have also dipped 0.2 points nationally to 38.6%. The Liberals, meanwhile, are unchanged at 71 seats but have gained 0.5 points (a relatively large gain in the projection). They now have the projected support of 27.6% of Canadians.

The New Democrats drop the two seats, and now stand at 32. They are also down 0.1 points to 16.8%. The Bloc Québécois is unchanged at 9.4% nationally and 51 seats, while the Greens are down 0.1 points to 6.4%
