Poll variations..

There are two recent polls that vary considerably but both ended on Saturday the 20th.

A Nanos poll taken on Sept. 20th has these results in terms of percentages of popular vote:

Conservatives 36

Liberals 31

NDP 20

Green 7

Bloc 7

However a Harris Decima poll as reported by CBC gives the following results from a four day poll ending on Sept. 20.

Conservatives 39

Liberals 23

NDP 17

Green 11

Bloc 8

There is a difference of 8 points in Liberal support between the two polls. Don't ask me why!
