Because their polling includes introducing their Ward front-runners as dubiously-coined "union-PAC-endorsed candidate", while having no such descriptors for non-progressive candidates. They even have this gem:
"In Ward 10, former Councillor Chabot looks set for a return, polling 44%, well ahead of the former staffer to Liberal minister, Marie-Claude Bibeau, and union-PAC-endorsed Abed Harb, on 13%."
No objectively-based non-partisan group would ever describe candidates like this - clearly a swipe at progressive candidates.
And their social media feeds are clearly on a partisan tilt.
While some of these Ward results may not be entirely far off, do not give credence to this ragtag band of conservative sycophants.

Releasing misleading polls like this before an election is extremely detrimental to our democracy. If this is the case, they should be treated harshly by whatever laws we can use against them. So gross.
