LIBERALS, TORIES TIED IN CALGARY CONFEDERATION
September 16, 2015 (Toronto, ON) – A new Mainstreet/Postmedia poll finds Liberal candidate MGrant in a statistical tie with Conservative candidate Len Webber . The Mainstreet/Postmedia phas a margin of error of +/- 3.73%, 19 times out of 20.
Grant’s small lead is fuelled by a staggering 50% level of support amongst those 18-34, but he aeads narrowly among those ‘certain to vote’.
Calgary has turned in to a hotbed of competitive races in this federal election, with CalgConfederation expected to be a neck and neck race, a statistical tie with Liberal Matt Grant edg
out Conservative Len Webber by a single point,” said Quito Maggi, president of MainstreResearch.
Turnout and youth engagement will be a key factor in this election and the Liberals Matt Graholds a commanding lead among those 18-34, not surprising given his youth. This generatiohange appeal is a big advantage in that age group where he leads by more than 30 points, 50o just 17% for both his opponents. ”
The advantage for Conservative Len Webber lies in the undecided voters who are leaning, whehe leads with 18% to just 7% for the NDP and 6% for the Liberals. There is still a significant portof truly undecided voters, and with more than a month to go to election day, there is plentyopportunity to convince these voters by all the campaigns in Calgary Confederation.”
This will be a riding to watch on October 19th,” he finished.
