A new poll has found that the majority of Canadians if they could vote in the upcoming US election would cast their ballot for Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, and that Canadians believe Harris winning the presidency would be the best outcome for Canada.
The Leger poll, conducted for the Canadian Press, found that 64 percent of Canadian adults said they would vote for Harris if they could, while 21 percent said they would vote for GOP nominee Donald Trump. An additional 15 percent were unsure.
When asked what the best outcome for Canada in the US election would be, 62 percent said a Harris victory, while 20 percent said a Trump victory and 18 percent were unsure.
65 percent of Canadians said they were very or somewhat worried about violence and uncertainty related to the outcome of the US election. 37 percent of Canadians also said that Trump winning the election would make them less likely to travel to the US, while 44 percent said it would not change their travel plans.
Canadians said that Harris would do a better job than Trump on issues polled, including addressing climate change (68 to 14 percent), trade relations with Canada (64 to 18 percent), and immigration (58 to 28 percent).
The poll was conducted between October 18 and 21 of 1,562 Canadian adults and has a margin of error of 2.48 percent.
