i have been consistent on this point: i have refused to analyse "online polling" in any way whatsoever.

it's unscientific; i just ignore it.

you're not going to get a different reaction from this source. it doesn't matter if we're a day before the election, and all we have is "online polls" - i'll just tell you that there's no data to draw on for strategic voting, so vote with your heart.

the fact is that we saw the same thing in 2014. we got a bunch of "online polls" - funded by tory media sources - that said the conservatives were going to win in a landslide. then, when some reliable polling said otherwise, it was completely ignored.

then, the tory media blames their error on "unreliable polling" - which is what any educated person would have told you about the "online polling" they were citing in the first place.

there were good polls in 2014. there will be good polls in 2018, too. wait for it.

my best guess is that the tory media is inflating ndp support in an attempt to try to split the vote.
