Roxanne James trails in Scarborough East
Liberal Zahid in first place
TORONTO
October 4th, 2015 - In a random sampling of public opinion taken by
the Forum Poll™ among 458 voters in the slightly redistricted Toronto federal
riding of Scarborough Centre, more than 4-in-10 will vote for the Liberal
candidate, Salma Zahid (43%), while just more than a third will support the
incumbent, Conservative MP Roxanne James (36%). The NDP will take about one
fifth of the vote (19%) and very few will vote Green (2%).
“This
riding had been Liberal for almost 20 years before the Conservative majority of
2011, during which it was ably and memorably represented by John Cannis. It
looks like Scarborough Centre is returning to its crimson roots,” said Forum
Research President, Dr. Lorne Bozinoff.
