A new poll suggests just under half of Toronto voters have still not made up their minds about who they will vote for in June's mayoral byelection.
The survey, conducted by Liaison Strategies for the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada, found that 43 per cent of respondents were unsure who they would vote for if an election were held today, two points less than when they conducted a survey a week earlier and 45 per cent said they hadn’t decided.
“A lot of people have yet to make up their minds,” Liaison Strategies Principal David Valentin told CP24 in an interview. “And that could be because they're still not following the race or still not paying attention, or it could be because there's 50 candidates who are running and they are having a hard time making up their mind.”
Among the leading candidates, Saunders saw the strongest support in Etobicoke , while Matlow and Chow saw their strongest support in North York . Lesser-known candidates who hope to be competitive will need to do something to get their names out before Election Day, Valentin said.
