Ahhh, yes, it was the CTV story that covered it...

Quote:
The Strategic Counsel asked respondents about whether the prospect of a Tory victory on Jan. 23 might cause them to change their vote, in order to find out what percentage of each party's supporters might be "strategic voters" (change from Jan. 3-5 poll in brackets):
  • Liberals: 8 per cent (-2)
  • Conservatives: 5 per cent (-1)
  • NDP/Greens: 11 per cent (-3)
  • Bloc Quebecois: 3 per cent (-5)

What I find interesting is that there would be more Liberals that would change their vote as compared to Cons (??). Would that indicate the soft Conservative vote is more than offset by Liberals who would switch to try to get a Conservative member elected?

Also, by all four groups going down in percentage, it looks like the voting choices are solidifying.
