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 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.
