Things are not looking good for the NDP in Saskatchewan. With a provincial election this fall, the party appears doomed to be handed an even smaller caucus from the populace as official opposition with their polling numbers dropping.
The governing Saskatchewan Party now holds the support of 58% of the electorate which should give them approximately 49 of 58 seats, an increase of eleven. The NDP meanwhile has dropped six points from their 2007 performance to 31% meaning they should win the remaining nine seats. The Liberals support has shrunk by half and the Greens support has tripled, but polling like this will not result in a third party entering the legislature.
Hope for the NDP must remain strong. With a strong federal election result just a few months before, and our support concentrated in urban areas, along with probable inaccurate polls (one poll every nine months can't be that accurate) must harden our resolve. Keep fighting for a victory Saskatchewan NDP.
