40% is considered majority territory.
I don't believe polls are even remotely accurate. Clinton was way ahead of Trump in the polls, how did that turn out? A better example is the last federal election where Trudeau was polled to finish dead last, how did that turn out?

Even if the PC's get the most votes Doug Ford will still not be Premiere. There is an article I read that states the Liberals will throw their support to Horwath in the case Ford is ahead. You can pretty much guarantee Horwath will be the next Premiere of Ontario.
