Blog Survey Show Harper Budget Did Not Increase Support for a CPC Majority Government.

UPDATE: MARCH 27 - DECIMA POLL AGREES WITH MY BLOG

The survey trends on this site about if you want a Harper majority government has been interesting. It has been running since late February. Originally the No side was way ahead but by early to mid March the respondents were almost 50/50 and then a slight majority said Yes. They said they were ready for a Harper majority government, for a few days, just before the federal Budget came down.

Ever since the Harper Budget on May 19th the activity on the survey has increased dramatically and the ratio has shifted. Now it is running 80/20 against a Harper majority government. As you can see the net result is a 60/40 over the time this survey has been running.

I will keep this survey alive for a few more weeks to see how my Blog readers react to the Quebec election and the level of desire they have for a Harper majority government given the Quebec election results.

This is not scientific by any means but it is interesting to see what self-selecting folks who come to my site and who take a second to answer the poll questions are thinking.

    Gotta love how you downplay any poll that shows Harper and the CPC are gaining momentum and then applaud any poll showing weaker numbers. Spin, spin, spin.
