As for how strong the support for the party is, the CPC people are at 79% to 53% "strong" support, with 36% Liberals saying they "might change" versus 19% for the CPC, and 11% "undecided" liberal voters vs. 4% CPC. So I'm not sure how illusory the statistical tie is.
Obviously, the 14% of us who haven't settled are what matters, but I think if I were to bet on who is going to win just based on that I'd have to say Webber.
