Saskatoon mayoral candidate Charlie Clark says he will continue with his campaign plan, despite a poll suggesting a dip in his support.

Atchison and Moore tied with 27 per cent and Clark trailed at 19 per cent, down from 23 per cent in the last poll on Oct. 4. Moore’s support was unchanged, while Atchison climbed two per cent.

Devon Hein had five per cent; 22 per cent of respondents said they were undecided.

“It doesn’t change my strategy or my optimism for the city,” Clark said in an interview on Friday. “I’m glad this is an exciting race because people are talking about their city. It’s energizing.”

The survey, of 846 residents, which included land lines and cellphones, is considered accurate within 3.37 per cent, 19 times out of 20.
