Selinger, NDP Maintain Their Popularity; New PC Leader Pallister Still Unknown
Winnipeg, Manitoba - A new Probe Research/Winnipeg Free Press survey shows Premier Greg Selinger continues to receive a solid nod of approval from Manitobans for his performance in office, while newly acclaimed Progressive Conservative leader Brian Pallister has yet to be recognized by many voters.
A majority of Manitoba adults (50%) approve of the performance of Mr. Selinger, with three-in-ten (29%) disapproving of Mr. Selinger’s performance and 21 percent who were either unwilling or unable to comment on Mr. Selinger’s work in the province’s highest political office.
Mr. Pallister - who was recently acclaimed as the new leader of the PC party - received job approval ratings of only 33 percent (compared to 19% who disapproved of his job performance), with nearly one-half of Manitoba adults (48%) indicating they were either unfamiliar with Mr. Pallister or felt they needed more time to fully assess his performance.
