The pollster with a mystic reputation for accuracy has his first tracking poll out, and the numbers are closer than in some other polls: 37% Conservatives, 32% Liberals, 13% NDP. Those NDP numbers are one-third lower than in other recent polls.

I happen to think the Nanos legend is a little exaggerated -- there is no such thing as election-prediction accuracy this far out, because there are events -- cursed events! Blessed events! -- between here and the election day. But I know many of you swear by Nik as by the sun and stars, so I thought you’d want to see this.
