Polls
1 August 2018 (Ottawa, ON) – The governing Liberals have a wide lead over the Progressive Conservatives despite the PCs recently electing Chas Crosbie as their new leader.
Those are the findings from Mainstreet Research’s latest UltraPoll, a conglomeration of ten provincial polls. The poll surveyed 645 Newfoundland and Labrador residents between July 15th to 17th. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 3.86% and is accurate 19 times out of 20.
“The Liberals led by Dwight Ball are close to 46% support with the PCs far behind”, said Quito Maggi, President and CEO of Mainstreet Research. “The election of Crosbie as leader has not moved support for the PCs.”
Among decided and leaning voters, the Liberals have 45.8% support, while the PCs come in with 35.6%. The NDP led by Gerry Rogers have 12.5%.
The Liberals lead the PCs by significant margins among both men and women, as well as respondents of all age groups.
