According to a YouGov poll for today's Evening Standard.
- Boris 47%
- Livingstone 37%
- Brian Paddick 10%
- Sian Berry (Green Party) 2%
- Others 3%
It also shows Boris getting more second preference votes, 18%, than Livingstone, 14%. When second preferences are allocated Boris is ahead of Livingstone by 56% to 44%.
This is another good poll but the lead on first preferences is down slightly from 12% given in another YouGov/Evening Standard poll a couple of weeks ago. So we can't afford to put our feet up. Boris is working ferociously hard to secure victory and he needs the rest of us to do the same.
