The latest poll by Strategic Counsel published today confirms the trend of other recent polls — a continued decline for the Jean Charest’s Liberals. The ADQ vote is holding steady and the PQ has improved slightly. The latest DemocraticSPACE projections now show the PLQ and PQ running neck-and-neck, with 51 seats for the PLQ and 50 for the PQ (despite a 5.5% vote advantage for the PLQ). The ADQ is currently projecting at 24 seats (note: projections are not predictions; they merely reflect the current state of affairs). With nine days to go, the fate of Quebec’s new government is still far from clear.
Virtually all regions of the province, except the the Outaouais and most of the Island of Montréal, are very competitive (Note: we have revised our projections for the Montreal riding of Laurier-Dorion, which we now believe is too-close-to-call between the PQ and PLQ; we previously had the PQ slightly ahead). DemocraticSPACE classifies each riding into 5 categories:
1) “can’t call” (5% or less margin of victory)
2) “tight race” (>5% but <10% margin of victory)
3) “easy win” (> 10% but < a majority)
4) “majority” (>50% total votes but < 67%), and
5) “super majority” (>67% total votes).
Below is a region-by-region breakdown of the number of ridings in each category:
| REGION | Can’t Call | Tight Race | Easy Win | Majority | Super Majority |
| 1. Montréal-Ouest | 0 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 7 |
| 2. Montréal-Est | 2 | 0 | 7 | 5 | 0 |
| 3. Laval | 1 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 4. Montérégie | 8 | 2 | 10 | 1 | 0 |
