Quebec election: Voters head to the polls to choose next provincial government

Montreal - On Monday, citizens of Québec's 127 electoral districts will cast their votes in an election that may alter the ruling party. This is the first annual subscription priced at $205.00 plus GST for a year, with automatic renewal at $233.00 plus GST every 52 weeks, offering a 10% discount off the regular annual cost of $259.35. The offer is available to new and eligible subscribers, who can cancel at any time.

The election comes after the Coalition Avenir Québec secured majority victories in the previous two elections. However, recent polls indicate that the separatist Parti Québécois is leading the race. As the voting day approaches, Élections Québec reported a preliminary voter turnout of slightly above 45 percent. In the two most recent provincial elections, about 66 percent of eligible voters participated.
