First sizable day-to-day drop for the Conservatives in the Poll Tracker this morning. In the first few weeks, they were getting these kinds of increases in the day-to-day changes. newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/poll… Image Reminder that the new polls added this morning were in the field from Sept. 3-6, so it isn't just one day of polling.

So, I have, as they say, some personal news. After nearly seven years working with the CBC in the parliamentary bureau as the CBC's polls analyst, I've decided it is time to move on and do something different. It's been an incredible honour and privilege to work in the Ottawa bureau these past few years. My former colleagues there are the best in the business, and they constantly kept me in awe of their professionalism, dedication and limitless curiosity.

Here are two more examples of how the response to the pandemic is helping some governing parties. In Nova Scotia, a new Narrative Research poll has the McNeil Liberals at 57%, up 14 points from February. Government satisfaction at 77%, a "record high". narrativeresearch.ca/mcneil-liberal… In Prince Edward Island, Dennis King's minority PCs now have 54% support, up nine points since February. Government satisfaction is at 92% (!), another record. narrativeresearch.ca/pei-government…

Some thoughts on the election results in Alberta, with the caveat that we are still waiting on the "vote anywhere" ballots to be counted. Could flip a handful of seats and change the popular vote a tad, but nothing that would overturn the big picture. Let's dive in. Obviously, a big win for the UCP, who stand at 63 seats and 55% of the vote. That's better than in 2015, when the PCs and Wildrose combined for 52%. The NDP dropped from 41% to 32%, which still stands as their second-best performance ever.

Interesting Mainstreet poll on the B.C. provincial byelection in Nanaimo that could decide the fate of the minority NDP government. Shows an 8.5-pt Liberal lead, with 43.5% for Tony Harris (LIB) to 35% for Sheila Malcolmson (NDP). Some thoughts... mainstreetresearch.ca/bc-liberals-le… The poll had weak numbers for the Greens at 12.2%, which is surprising considering the low numbers for the NDP as well. The results in 2017 were 46.5% NDP, 32.5% LIB, 19.9% GRN. So suggests a big drop in support for both the NDP and Greens, with Liberals and CON/OTH benefiting.
