Tory Majority; Not yet

My liberal/progressive friends have been bemoaning the Tory Juggernaut, and its anticipated majority. I have maintained that the Tories will lose popular vote, because the high poll numbers often reported are outliers- the typical three- week numbers have the liberals and Conservatives much closer in popularity.

I have also asserted that overwhelming Tory support in a few ridings fails to address the underwhelming support in many ridings. Apparently, the Ipsos-Reid polling firm agrees with this assessment.
