Instant live big by-election update!

The status quo reigned tonight, with the PQ winning in two of the three by-elections, as predicted. Charest’s Liberals won in Hull. The ADQ was shut out completely, garnering nary a second place finish – despite two star candidates and a patented ’blame the immigrants’ campaign in Bourget. "The ADQ drifts toward marginality," reads the headline on canoe.ca.

As they say in these parts, ’ayoye.’
