Didn't the NDP launch a Quebec provincial party? Will that be up and running for the election?

One thing from the crosstabs: PQ leads 47/23 among Francophones. Strong, stable majority government indeed.

Potentially 7 debates. 6 TVA duels (2 per night) and 1 RDI debate with all 4 leaders. Now that'll be fun.

I would be surprised if TVA really invites Françoise David to its debates.

Péladeau is a right-wing Péquiste, so, he doesn't want to give airtime to the left, especially than QS is mostly taking PQ votes.

But, they lost their main argument, which is the incompatibility of the format, as they were forced to transform it in a 4-person format after Joly rise in Montreal election.

Very ironically, April 14, 2003 was the day of the election in which PQ lost power to the Liberals.

308 translates that CROP as 79/40/6 in seats, which would be the highest seat count for either party in 25 years.

TCTC has 70/48/5/2 in seats. Detailed projection has Couillard and Moreau both in dead heats.

Is Legault running in a new riding or sticking w/L'Assomption? Cause he'd get walloped if he stays.

Legault will run in L'Assomption.
PQ candidate is Pierre Paquette, the former BQ house leader MP for Joliette. He was widely seen as Duceppe successor until he declined to run for BQ leadership. So, an heavyweight and possibly a future Cabinet member.

How hard is the PQ running on that sketchy laïcité law?

Didn't heard about it this month, through obviously, right now, media is obsessed by Winter Olympics.

I'll try to get a preliminary projection map up ASAP (next few days). I'll see how much time I have.

Yeah, Paquette might even be a leadership hopeful later. Though for now I'd limit that pool to Drainville, Lisée and Duchesne.

Hah: the budget "consultations" between Marceau and Paradis lasted all of 5 minutes. Paradis would've been a good PLQ leader... but doesn't fit the soft-soft, martini, conformist mold demanded by the Establishment (when the PLQ needs precisely the opposite mold IMO).

A few friends are talking/thinking the QS could sweep up the PQs left-wing vote in Montreal primarily due to the charter and the PQs even more obvious move the the social-right, which will sour their vote in some key battle ridings in the central/DT areas.
Also, the NPDQ is still grossly under organized to be any real threat... the federal party should have made the effort back in 2006 to built a provincial wing, when the Sherbrooke Declaration was first drawn up. So no go there, the progressives should start to rally more around QS, outside of the west island that is

I didn't realize you were a fan of Front nationale-style xenophobia from the PQ?

I just don't much care about linguistic issues one way or another, and PQ is clearly the best on serious issues.

The NPDQ can't get set up fast enough.

There's been conflicting reports about whether they're just reserving the name or setting up a full-fledged party.

I'm not sure they decided yet either.
