They should start doing polls to find out, who of the four can beat the Liberals in the next elections.
An internal poll for Cloutier was given to a journalist.

With Cloutier: PLQ 31%, PQ 28%, CAQ 23%
With Lisée: PLQ 31%, PQ 25%, CAQ 25%
With Ouellet: PLQ 32%. PQ 22%, CAQ 28%

With Cloutier: PLQ 36%, PQ 27%, CAQ 27%, QS 10%
Wth Lisée: PLQ 33%, PQ 31%, CAQ 25%, QS 11%
With Ouellet: PLQ 36%, PQ 25%, CAQ 28%, QS 10%
With St-Pierre Plamondon: PLQ 36%, PQ 21%, CAQ 29%, QS 14%
In May, CROP had Lisée trailing the PLQ 33% to 26% while Cloutier was almost tied with the PLQ, 34% to 33%.
The poll asked those supporting the PQ their choice for leader. Cloutier got 37%, Lisée 36%, Ouellet 22%, St-Pierre Plamondon 5%.
I don't know if Gilles Duceppe's media tour yesterday telling Lisée doesn't have what it takes to be PQ leader will have influence. Cloutier is now saying it is a tight race compared to September 12 he was saying it was far from reality it was a tied race. Now says two important debates are left, two weeks ago was saying the level of interest to debates will go decreasing, 85% of people have made their mind.
