Projection Update: Nanos 9/28-30 and Global News/Ipsos 9/27-30

The following polls have been added to the model:
Nanos' 9/28-30 national poll (national results only; current weight among national polls: 21%)
Global News/Ipsos' 9/27-30 national poll (numbers from Global News article only; current weight among national polls: 20%)
For a full list of included polls, see previous Projection posts.
Update 10/1: Mainstreet's Beauport--Limoilou poll was also considered, but did not result in an adjustment.

The Conservative lead expands slightly in the Nanos tracker, with the biggest movement being a Green fall and an NDP increase. The dropped sample was from 9/27, which was the night before the climate strike, and coincided with Frank Graves tweeting about a steep Green rise in QC. So it seems quite possible that the Green rise picked up by Nanos and Graves was simply a short-lived Greta effect.

The Ipsos poll is pretty much what you'd expect from Ipsos. Its most noteworthy elements are a poor national Green number, a relatively good Tory number in QC, and a very competitive Liberal one in BC.

Overall, the model sees these new numbers as marginal good news for the Tories in terms of seats - marginal enough that it doesn't fully erase Liberal gains in yesterday's afternoon update. In terms of vote share, however, the Tories do jump back to what I think of as their neutral level of 36% (where they were all of August), at the expense of the Greens.
