Scott's DiaTribes: Election 1 yr away; Battle on Carbon Pricing Favors Liberals

A little over a month ago, only about 16 or 17 percent of respondents told pollsters they thought Dwight Ball was the best choice for Premier. In November, 27% of respondents picked Ball above Paul Davis and Earle McCurdy in Corporate Research Associate’s quarterly survey. That’s a big jump in
