27 APRIL 2018 (OTTAWA, ON) – Premier Brian Pallister and the Progressive Conservatives have significantly widened their lead over the opposition NDP.

Those are the findings from Mainstreet Research’s latest UltraPoll, a conglomeration of ten provincial polls. The poll surveyed 870 Manitobans between April 16th and April 18th. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 3.32 % and is accurate 19 times out of 20.

“This is good news for Premier Pallister,” said Quito Maggi, President and CEO of Mainstreet Research. “The margin between the PCs and NDP stood at three points in January, but the gap now stands at more than fifteen points.”

Among decided and leaning voters, the PC have 45.6% (+6% since January), while the NDP are at 30.2% (-6.5%). The Liberals led by Dougald Lamond currently enjoy 13% support (-0.3%), while the Greens led by James Bedomme are at 7.8% (-2.6%).

“The PCs lead in every demographic – except among Manitobans aged 50 to 64 – and in all regions in the province,” continued Maggi. “This certainly bodes well for Premier Pallister as his government shows no signs of mid-term blues as his government approaches the midpoint of its mandate.”
