Poll Position: Close Mayoral Race Gets Closer

By

Among surveyed voters:

  • George Smitherman: 31%
  • Rob Ford: 30%
  • Joe Pantalone: 10%

STILL UNDECIDED: 18%
POLL TAKEN: October 15–18.
SAMPLE SIZE: 600
MARGIN OF ERROR: +/- 4%, 19 times out of 20.
CONDUCTED BY: Leger Marketing, on behalf of the Toronto Sun.
NOTES: You know the deal: George Smitherman and Rob Ford are all but tied, and Joe Pantalone’s a distant third. The Sun has more details, including that 47% of those surveyed “believe Ford would bring the most change,” but 42% “think Smitherman would be the best mayor.” “I think change is maybe not good according to the City of Toronto,” Dave Scholtz, the executive vice-president of Leger Marketing, told the paper. Depends on the change, it seems.
