However, 42 per cent of respondents reported being either mostly or completely dissatisfied by the performance of the Liberal government.

Party support has remained steady, with Liberals maintaining 42 per cent support among decided voters if a provincial election was held today.

The Progressive Conservatives and New Democrats have both increased by a single percentage point among those polled, to 33 and 24 per cent, respectively.

Twenty-two per cent of people polled said they were undecided on which party they would vote for.

Approval for Dwight Ball has remained essentially unchanged, with 36 per cent of people polled saying they would choose him as premier from among the party leaders.

Tory Leader Ches Crosbie's approval was down three percentage points to 23 per cent, while Alison Coffin's approval was down two percentage points to 19 per cent.

Ten per cent of people asked replied they would prefer none of the current leaders, while another 11 per cent said they didn't know or had no answer.
