The latest polls have shown a steady increase in support for the Liberal party of Quebec, at the cost of declining support from the Coalition Avenir Quebec.

Meanwhile support for Quebec Solidaire has also increased, while support for the Parti Quebecois has remained flat.

A CROP-La Presse poll published on Tuesday March 18, 2014 indicates about 39 percent of Quebecers would vote for the Liberal party if a vote were held today.

That is a three percentage point increase since CROP's last poll on March 8, while the February poll had the Liberals at 34 percent.

CROP had the PQ at 40 percent support before the election was called, dropping to 36 percent on March 8.

A Leger poll issued over the weekend had the Liberals and PQ at 33 percent support each, before taking the undecided voters into account.

The CAQ has been steadily losing support since the election was called, going from 16 percent support to its current level of 13 percent.

Meanwhile Quebec Solidaire has been gaining ground, going from 7 percent in February to its current level of 10 percent.
