...I think is that he should weight polls ie: ones with bigger sample sizes, and less MOE's (Margins of Error) need to be more heavily considered than ones with tiny regional samples and big MOE's. I really doubt the Liberals will be able to pick up three net seats in BC, but because one poll showed they were at 40% in the province he had to factor that in.
