Olivia Chow maintains a commanding position in the Toronto mayoral race ahead of the October 26 vote, supported by a recent Liaison Strategies poll showing her at 50 percent among decided voters compared to Brad Bradford’s 37 percent. This 13-point advantage, the first since candidate registration opened on May 1, reflects her incumbency advantage and broad voter consolidation following earlier surveys where she also led declared challengers. Bradford, the highest-profile official entrant, trails as the primary alternative but has yet to close the gap despite focusing on core municipal issues like traffic. Minor candidates including Ana Bailão and others register negligible support in available data, consistent with the current trader consensus favoring Chow while leaving room for late developments in a still-fluid campaign.
