Nanos Nightly Canadian Election Tracking Highlights (3-day tracking ending October 10th)

Posted on by

Liberals maintain six point lead over Conservatives

  • National Ballot – The current Nanos nightly tracking shows the Liberals at 35.1% support nationally followed by the Conservatives at 29.0%, the NDP at 25.0%, and the Greens at 5.1%.
  • Regional Races – The federal Liberals lead in Atlantic Canada and Ontario while the Conservatives retain their advantage in ballot support in the Prairies. Quebec is a tight race between the NDP and the Liberals and in British Columbia it is a three way race in the Nanos tracking.

The team at Nanos in conjunction with Klipfolio is pleased to launch our new live political data portal where you run the numbers you want and can explore the trends and data you need.  This is part of our campaign, not only to provide the most reliable data to Canadians but to let them use it as they wish. We were the first to do nightly tracking and now we are the first research organization to post live public opinion data for Canadians.

Methodology

A national random telephone (land + cell) survey using live agents of 1,200 Canadians is conducted by Nanos Research throughout the campaign over a three day period.  Each evening a new group of 400 eligible voters are interviewed.  The daily tracking figures are based on a three-day rolling sample comprised of 1,200 interviews.  To update the tracking a new day of interviewing is added and the oldest day dropped. The margin of error for a survey of 1,200 respondents is ±2.8%, 19 times out of 20.

The respondent sample is stratified geographically and by gender.  The data may be weighted by age according to data from the 2011 Canadian Census administered by Statistics Canada.  Percentages reported may not add up to 100 due to rounding.  The research has been registered with the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association of which Nanos is a member.

Results are based on the three day calling window October 8 to 10, 2015. The research was commissioned by CTV News and The Globe and Mail.

Some New Democrats are getting an early start on their fall convention.

On the weekend following Labour Day, three of the four B.C. NDP constituency associations on the North Shore will elect delegates to the November convention at which Adrian Dix will face a leadership review.

Members from North Vancouver–Seymour, North Vancouver–Lonsdale, and West Vancouver–Capilano will hold a joint meeting on September 7 and choose their respective delegates, according to David Schreck.

The former B.C. NDP representative for North Vancouver–Lonsdale expects talk during the gathering to zero in on the fates of Dix, who failed to lead New Democrats to victory in this year’s provincial election, and party president Moe Sihota.

“People know that the leadership of the party screwed up, and somebody has to pay for that,” Schreck told the Straight by phone.

A panel is holding a review of the B.C. NDP’s loss, and its report will be taken up at the convention. “People don’t want to be told that really everything is okay, that voters made a mistake,” Schreck said.

Dix has taken the summer off to ponder his future.
