About this Abacus Data federal poll


This federal poll was fielded by Abacus Data in August 2023, with a middle field date of August 21, 2023. The poll collected data from a total sample of n=2,189 Canadian respondents via an online panel.

The margin of error for an online sample is not applicable. For comparison purposes, a random sample of this size would yield a margin of error [moe] of ±2.1%, 19 times out of 20 (for entire sample only) around the 50%-mark.

If we compare these national numbers with the previous poll from Abacus Data (August 2023), the Conservative Party is up one point (variation smaller than moe), the Liberal Party loses two points from 28% to 26% (variation similar to moe), and the New Democratic Party remains stable at 19%.
