It would appear at this time that given the almost identical findings of the latest series of polls, that the poll we saw from Ekos is an outlier.

This in no way is a criticism of the work Ekos does. Outliers are going to happen to everyone in the business.

It's a no brainer given that the is a clown show.

However it seems every time that the circus starts, Liberals say 'hold my beer!!'....

Twitter full of tweets of outrage over CPC fundraising off of yesterday, while fundraising...

You all can argue about what took place today until you are blue in the face...have at it.

Meanwhile in the real world there's playoff hockey to be watched.

Cheers 🍻

Just an FYI for the 'fake polls!!' crowd, whether it be the current incarnation, past or future incarnations:

The polls are not fake. There is no conspiracy to produce fake polls showing someone ahead or to hide 'real' polls showing someone else ahead. Deal with it!!

Five polls released or to be released since Sunday. Four with almost identical findings and one not so much.

It would appear that one is an outlier at this time. However that's not to disparage that pollster's work. It happens to them all at one time or another.

So, if the current polls and polling trends are fake, then why this??

BTW, the recent by-election in Newfoundland was a PROVINCIAL by-election... not a federal one.

People on this site should set the politics down slowly, back away & talk with their fellow tweeps (followers or not, agree or not) about other things like normal people.

I have a great group (u know who u are) I do just that with & it's quite refreshing.

Anyone, and I mean anyone, using today's anniversary of the mass murder to advance any kind of pro or anti political agenda or politician, can kindly FRO.

Once again... absolutely amazing how the federal parties managed to run candidates in a provincial by-election... 🙄

I'm just going to guess that those crying about the budget being criticized and it hasn't even been seen yet forgot about the two week tour where the PM and others were announcing major portions of it.

Oooof .... assuming the possibility that Nanos could be an outlier.

Another poll or two from other organizations to see who is correct.
