Public service
The calendar for the Quebec general election: the deadline to be a candidate, the two days of advance voting and election day. Plus the leaders' debates, once announced, and the count of declared candidates.
The dates and times are those of Élections Québec's calendar, the only authoritative source. We reproduce them to place them in time; in case of any discrepancy, Élections Québec is correct.
The dates come from broadcaster announcements. When the time has not yet been made public, we say so rather than guess — it will appear here as soon as the broadcaster confirms it.
The count follows party announcements and public records; it is refreshed every week. A party may have declared a candidate without the announcement being public yet — the tally is a floor, never an official total. The official list of candidacies is published by Élections Québec after the deadline.
