Olivia Chow led the field of mayoral candidates in a poll conducted the day of her official campaign launch event.
Chow had the support of 36 per cent of respondents, incumbent Rob Ford 28 per cent, John Tory 22 per cent. They all held wide leads over Karen Stintz at 5 per cent and David Soknacki at 2 per cent. Seven per cent were undecided.
Of course, as the story notes, this poll ran the day of her launch, so it comes in the midst of a wave of positive publicity. Also worth commenting upon is how awful things have gone for Karen Stintz, who was willing to put the city 100-mil in the hole to fuel her base mayoral ambitions. BURN IN HELL EVIL WOMAN!
And Dave Soknacki is holding strong at 2 per cent.
At least a small number of that 28% supporting Ford would be joshing the pollster. He is a special case of politician where that could happen.
