| | With more than three-quarters of the vote counted, returns showed that incumbent Premier Lucien Bouchard's party will control 76 of the 125 seats in the provincial legislature, the federalist Liberal Party 48 seats and the Democratic Action party one seat. | | | The vote capped a 32-day campaign that pitted two of the country's most charismatic politicians: Bouchard, 59, the intense incumbent who honed his separatism in the poor and remote Saguenay region of the province, and Charest, 40, whose perfect bilingualism was a reflection of his strong dual loyalties to both Canada and Quebec. | | | Throughout the campaign, Charest sought to define the debate with his increasingly strident warnings that reelecting Bouchard would put the province on an "irreversible course" toward the breakup of the Canadian federation. |
