The Parti Québécois (PQ) has grown its lead in voter intentions among Quebecers while the ruling Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) has lost more support, according to a new poll.
The Léger/Quebecor poll released Tuesday shows that, if an election were to be held now, 35 per cent of Quebec voters would choose Paul St-Pierre Plamondon's PQ, which is an increase of three points since Oct. 8.
The future doesn't look as bright for Premier François Legault's party, however. The poll suggests that the CAQ would only get 24 per cent of the vote, a decrease of three points.
Meanwhile, the Quebec Liberal Party (PLQ) remained stable at 17 per cent. Québec solidaire, co-led by Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois, was down by one percentage point at 13 per cent.
The Quebec Conservative Party came last at 11 per cent (down one point).
"It should also be noted that satisfaction with the Legault government has fallen by 6 points since last October" at 32 per cent, according to the poll.
The Léger/Quebecor poll also surveyed Quebecers' interest in the PLQ's leadership race.
