A new quarterly survey shows the provincial Liberals have regained their lead in voter intentions.
Support for the Liberals has rebounded after a poor performance three months ago according to a new survey by Narrative Research.
If the election was to be held today, 47 per cent say they would support the current governing party, up from 40 per cent in the previous poll. The PCs see a drop in support, going from 42 per cent to 34 per cent. Support for the NDP remained unchanged at 16 per cent.

The telephone survey was conducted during November, drawing from a sample of 535 residents.
