This is a very encouraging to the Saskatchewan Party and very discouraging to the NDP party. This polls will have an impact on the minds and opinion of the voters which could encourage more voters to either vote for Saskatchewan Party or NDP. Polls do play a significant role in the day to day political campaigns which could push political parties to offer more in order to shift peoples’ minds and opinion.
I don’t think people particularly political party candidates should be discouraged by this polls for a number of reasons. Candidates should work forwards and be confident. They have always the chance to play a role and get people attention and stand for what is best for the province. Saskatchewan voters should not be encouraged or discouraged by this polls they should go out there and vote for what they believe not what the polls predicts.
What do you think about these polls? Does it effect your decision?

I find the results of the polls discouraging for the future of Saskatchewan (as I support the NDP). However, hopefully it will get more people who support more left-end politics to vote for the NDP... It will only be certain where the votes will end up at the end of Nov. 7! So get out and vote NDP!! (ha my hopeful plug for the NDP)
