I just looked at the list of polls on the Wikipedia site above, and realized I was wrong. Leger's numbers are actually pretty consistent with some of the other numbers out there--Forum, for instance, has the NDP at 34 and the CPC at 28.

I don't have a clear recollection--and I'm confident octothorp can set me straight--but am I right in thinking that Forum has a slight liberal house-effect relative to other pollsters, like Nanos and Mainstreet? If that's true, then I think all the polls really are telling us the same story, which is that this is a close election and the NDP has a slight lead.
