On another note, Forum's numbers from yesterday look about the same as their numbers from last week: NDP 34, CPC 29, Liberals 28.

Interestingly, the regionals bear out the CROP poll, showing a big NDP lead in Quebec. Meanwhile, Ontario is still deadlocked, with the CPC perhaps clinging to a narrow lead.

To me this raises the question of whether the NDP vote will be "efficient" in the sense of translating into enough seats to form government. If the CPC win Ontario, I doubt it will matter which party wins the popular vote; they should, in that case, hang on to a minority government.
