As this year's municipal election pulls into the home stretch, all of the mayoral candidates say they're committed to staying in the race.

The most recent Mainstreet poll shows Don Atchison leading the race at 30 per cent. Challenger Kelley Moore comes in at 28 per cent, followed by Charlie Clark at 21 per cent and Devon Hein at four per cent.

As a debate rages on social media between Clark and Moore supporters, with both sides accusing the other of splitting the vote, neither candidate seems interested in dropping out.

"This is a three-way race and I plan to carry on right to the finish," Clark told reporters after last night's FSIN debate. "With a very clear and strong message about what we need to do to succeed in this city with our growth, with creating new jobs in this city, with making sure we create a good transit system."

Meanwhile, Moore said she's not worried about any change vote being divided by the two candidates.

"I'm really excited about the momentum," said Moore. "We still saw growth in the polls, still within the margin of error, so Mr. Atchison and I are tied. What I hear, everywhere I go, is people are interested in change."

For his part, Clark remains skeptical about polling numbers, and believes he can win.

"Polls have been notoriously wrong in other places," he said. "This is a three-way race, and I plan to carry on right to the finish with a very strong message."

The election is Oct. 26.

In the most recent poll, Mainstreet surveyed a random sample of 853 Saskatoon residents by Smart IVRTM on Oct. 18. A mixture of landlines and cellphones were surveyed with a margin of error: +/- 3.36 per cent, 19 times out of 20.
