François Legault’s Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) is losing ground, especially in Quebec, suggests a new Léger poll published Wednesday in Quebecor media.
The survey was conducted online with 1,028 Quebecers from September 22 to 25. He suggests that the CAQ gets 34% of support, a drop of three points since last month, while the Parti Québécois (PQ) would come in second place at 22%.
Québec solidaire (QS) would follow with 17% of voting intentions, the Liberal Party of Quebec (PLQ) would obtain 14% and the Conservative Party of Quebec (PCQ) of Éric Duhaime would bring up the rear with 12%.
In the National Capital, the Caquists have lost ten points compared to last month, according to the poll, which comes a few days before the closely followed complementary election in Jean-Talon.
In a press scrum Wednesday at the National Assembly, the leader of the PQ, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, was delighted with the results of the poll, which demonstrate, according to him, that the CAQ is not “unbeatable”.
“We are encouraged,” he said. What is clear is that there is only one party that has a chance of beating the CAQ in Jean-Talon, and it is indeed the Parti Québécois. »
