Conservatives Will Take BC

A new Ipsos-Reid/CTV/Globe and Mail poll shows the Conservatives solidifying their lead in British Columbia. The Conservatives have the support of 38% of decided and leaning voters in the province. This gives the Conservatives a 12-point advantage over the NDP (26%) and a 13-point advantage over the Liberals (25%). The Green Party currently stands at 8%.

These results show the Conservatives gaining ground since a mid-campaign Ipsos-Reid/CTV/Globe and Mail poll (June 1st-June 8th). The Conservatives are up 5-points (38% from 33%), stealing small amounts of support from the NDP (26% from 27%), Liberals (25% from 27%) and Greens (8% from 10%).

An exclusive seat model prepared for CTV and the Globe and Mail by Ipsos-Reid, suggests the Conservatives are positioned to win the bulk of British Columbia’s 36 seats. The Conservatives are projected to have 24 to 28 seats in the province, compared to the Liberals at 4 to 8 seats and the NDP at 2 to 6 seats.
