I smell something stinky.
Grits regain support, not momentum, poll shows
It took less than a week, but the Liberals have already rebounded from the popularity hit they took when the Gomery report was released on Nov. 1.
In a Nov. 4 poll, the governing party’s support was estimated at 28 per cent—a 10-point plunge from one released Oct. 19.
However, in a new poll conducted over the weekend by The Strategic Counsel for CTV and The Globe and Mail, the Liberals are back up to 35 per cent support.
Here are the new numbers, with the percentage-point change from the Nov. 4 poll in brackets:
Liberals: 35 per cent (+7)
Conservatives: 28 per cent (-3)
NDP: 16 per cent (-4)
Bloc Quebecois 13 per cent (no change)
Green Party: 8 per cent (+1)
Regionally, the poll found the Liberals taking a solid lead over the Opposition in Ontario, 44 to 31 per cent. […]
This is the same polling outfit, commissioned by the same liberal-friendly brother and sister act, CTV and Globe and Mail (Bell Globemedia-owned), that did the last poll which showed such a strange anomaly from all of the other polls being conducted at roughly the same time.
Once again, they don’t show the exact poll question that was asked, nor allow us to see the results for ourselves. Nor do they show us the details of individual provinces nor how many were polled in each province. They don’t even provide a Web link for those seeking the full information.
