'There's a lot to say about this survey,' said Liaison Strategies principal David Valentin. 'This really could be anyone's race.'

The survey, conducted by Liaison Strategies for the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada, found that Carolyn Parrish is narrowly holding on to a lead.

“Perhaps the most striking numbers come from undecided voters. The undecided rate has dropped to 16 per cent among all voters — but it has jumped to 37 per cent among seniors.” “Among seniors, Carolyn Parrish has lost 16 points and one would assume at least part of this can be attributed to recent statements Parrish has made during the election and, potentially, her decision to not attend future election debates,” Valentin said.“Her competitors, of course, seized on her remarks and played a role in their amplification.”Parrish has a small lead over Dipika Damerla among decided voters , Valentin said, noting that the poll also has a margin or error of plus or minus 3.

“The lower the turnout and the more efficient the campaign organization, the greater the possibility for a campaign to outperform their poll numbers. Conversely, campaigns can underperform too.”
