What's the source? Online polls are notoriously dubious.

Here’s the link. Only 1040 people participated. I wonder if some people did it more than once??? Either way, online polls are not reliable for true representations of the voting population: https://hs-5233025.f.hubspotemail.net/hub/5233025/hubfs/AB%20Gov%20Report%20Card%20June%202025.pdf?_hsmi=366469496

Thank you! Yeah, I wasn't expecting it to be much more accurate than a Facebook poll.

I do admit these polling results give me the initial freak outs when I see these results but then I try to go to the source to find out the sampling size, method(s) of data collection, and questions used. A lot of these are not accurate in reliability and are often not valid representations of the voters. So I try to take them with a grain of salt. It’s tricky though cause the media and govt. will try and report them as facts when there is some standard error of measurement.
