Forum Poll conducted Saturday:

Lib: 45 (-15)
Cons: 31 (+2)
NDP: 24 (+14)

Wow, last minute swing to the NDP. Not enough obviously, but Tommy campaigning there is making an impact. The party has to show a good performance there to save face I think. If the Liberals can't break 50%, than that is a loss for them.

Should get a reasonable second with momentum like that, right?

I wouldn't bet on it, but here's hoping. If anything the Tories will over perform, due to perceived under polling in Tory friendly Aboriginal areas (yes, you read that right... it's Labrador)

We shouldn't be using the joke pollster, but yeah, I do expect a big Grit win.

Interesting colour you've chosen for the Libertarians. Aren't they light green?

True. I was thinking of American ones (usually represented in yellow, but it was too hard to read), so it was the first similar color which came to my mind.

VOCM?

Narrowing a bit. Maybe the NDP can catch up? Not likely.

75 out of 91 polls in, NDP's back above 20%, and 46% turnout so far: pretty good for a byelection...
