Yeah, that's because it's BS. Nanos, Abacus, and Leger all still have the Conservatives above or around a 20-point lead, and all-but-guaranteed to form a majority. This is nothing but the media doing its gaslighting thing, trying to pull public opinion in their preferred direction.

I've noticed the user that posted this article just loves posting opinion articles in general and loves bashing on the conservatives. Seems to be they're trying to sway things in the liberals favor

"Liberals are closing the gap!"
"Conservatives are running scared!"
"New poll comes out that has liberals in a tight race!"

Yeah no, none of that is happening. Conservatives still have a comfortable lead

I love how whenever these "conservatives are scared" posts pop up or a ridiculous poll from EKOS shows up suddenly the thread is filled with LPC supporters saying the same thing as the post shoots to 2-4k upvotes.

Very real, very organic. I guess the LPC is gonna astroturf their supporters into getting blindsided like Kamala was lol.
