Saskatchewan Party leader Brad Wall talks to reporters about the provincial election campaign so far

When Wall was asked how he is approaching the last couple days of the campaign while he holdsa substantial lead in the polls, he said he's not taking anything for granted.

"It's not done," he said. "Political history in this country and in North America is rich with stories of last-minute changes."

Broten, speaking to reporters at a campaign office in northeast Regina, said he wasn't focusing on the polls.

"I'll leave the pundits, the journalists and those to make the predictions," he said. "What I'm focused on is working flat out between now and election day."

Also commenting on Saskatchewan's fiscal state, Broten criticized Wall for not releasing a budget before the election.

"If it was a good-news budget for the people of this province, it would have been rolled out with a lot of fanfare," he said.

Both leaders saidthey will continue to work untilvotes are cast on Monday. Polls will beopen between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. CST that day.
