For the first time a party that is not Liberal or Progressive Conservative has come out on top of a P.E.I. The CRA poll, based on phone calls to 300 Islanders from Aug. 2-21, put the Green Party on top with the support of 38 per cent of Islanders, three points ahead of the governing Liberals. With just 20 per cent support for the PCs, the poll suggests the Island is moving towards a two-way race between the Liberals and Greens. Last August's poll showed a clear lead for the Liberals, 21 points ahead of the second place Progressive Conservatives. The poll for party preference is considered accurate within 6.7 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.
