Provincial Party Standings in Manitoba
Winnipeg – There may be a new face in the premier’s chair, but the governing New Democratic Party has maintained its familiar place in front of its rivals as Manitoba most-popular political party.
A new Probe Research Inc./Winnipeg Free Press survey finds that new Premier Greg Selinger and his NDP government would be re-elected by nearly one-half (47%) of decided Manitoba voters if a provincial election were held today. The NDP now enjoys a 10-percentage point advantage over its nearest rivals, the Progressive Conservative party, which is the first choice of 37 percent of decided voters. The Manitoba Liberal Party, meanwhile, remains a distant third with the support of 11 percent of decided voters. Four percent of decided voters would cast ballots for parties not represented in the Legislature. Nearly in five voters (19%) are undecided.
