I have met very few people truly undecided about whom to vote for in any provincial or national election in Canada.
I have met more than a few who knew exactly who they were voting for, but were undecided about exactly how to justify a choice they knew would be unpopular and/or divisive with their peers.
While this is anecdotal at best, one thing that makes me wonder if that is common is how hard the media works to provide that exact demographic with plausible excuses.
