Hypothetical polls said the same thing about David Miller, though I'm not convinced either would have actually defeated Ford in 2010.There is only one thing I've got against Tory: he didn't run for mayor in 2010. The hypothetical polls taken at the time indicated that he would have won, easily, and he could have prevented the Ford fiasco for us all. It would be pure speculation as to whether Tory would be running now for a second term.
These are the same machines we use in Toronto aren't they? Listening to the pundits, some are literally the same machines.It's happening, the electronic voting and counting catastrophe that brought us bush in the States.
Saddened that Chow hasn't gotten a boost with the Ford swap.

If the next few (non Forum) polls have Tory with leads of at least 10%, this race is over.

David Miller was beating Ford in polls actually. He would have won. Which is why I blame him as well. He should have stayed in 2010.David Miller would have wiped the floor with Ford. He was a strong debater, Pantalone would gratefully thrown him his support, and Smitherman imploded. The myth of Ford was built as much by his opponents (terrible) as the man himself (held himself together for a few months.)
When someone else wins this election (probably Tory), the tide goes out on the Fords and we'll see they're swimming without trunks. Doug can't get accepted by a provincial or federal party, Rob will never take office due to his health problems, Mikey the pawn will lose, and the Fords will sink back into the ooze.
To be fair, I don't think anyone had a clue as to how terrible Ford would be as mayor.David Miller was beating Ford in polls actually. He would have won. Which is why I blame him as well. He should have stayed in 2010.
Oh, plenty of us had a clue. All you had to do was watch him as a councillor for all those years. Granted, the personal shenanigans went even further than expected.To be fair, I don't think anyone had a clue as to how terrible Ford would be as mayor.

Only if you hadn't been following municipal politics. Otherwise the signs were all there, incompetence, policy failures and even the drunkedness. Only surprises were the consorting with gangs and crack smoking.
Is Scarborough purposely trying to be the redheaded stepchild....Forum Poll Scarborough 50% D Ford 22% J Tory 22% O Chow...
