On the eve of Ontario’s general election, the Progressive Conservatives hold a significant lead over their rivals and maintain an almost identical advantage to the one they had at the beginning of the campaign.
Global News reports that in a poll conducted for it by Ipsos Global Public Affairs, Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives are 20 points ahead of Bonnie Crombie’s Liberals. Marit Stile’s NDP and the Greens are in the third and fourth positions respectively.,
The poll predicts the PCs would win 48% of the vote, the Liberals would have 28%, and the NDP 16 and the Greens, polled together with any other party, would be at 8%.
Roughly 1 in 11 voters remain undecided.
If the polling translates into a similar result on Thursday, the PCs would win seven per cent more support than they received when they won 83 seats in 2022.
