📊 Current Polls & Trends
• According to a Leger poll (Aug 22–25, 2025), Andrew Knack leads with 12%, followed by Tim Cartmell at 10%. But almost 48% of respondents were undecided. 
• A more recent Abacus Data poll (Sept 25–29) shows Tim Cartmell in the lead among likely voters, with Andrew Knack in second. Cartmell had ~39% of decided likely voters; Knack ~28%. 
• The same Abacus poll notes that nearly 4 in 10 voters are still undecided, indicating the race is far from settled. 
• Endorsements are starting to roll in: ex-Mayor Stephen Mandel publicly endorsed Michael Walters for mayor. 
• At the recent mayoral debate (sponsored by the Chamber + Global News), the top 5 candidates by polling — Cartmell, Jaffer, Knack, Mohammad, Walters — were included. 
• A major theme across debates: fiscal responsibility, property taxes, and core services (snow clearing, potholes, etc.) are dominating voter concerns
