Quebec Votes: The Victory & The Violence - Panel

Last night's violence cast a pall over the PQ's celebration, but it shouldn't overshadow the political shift... Nearly 75-percent (74.61%) of eligible voters cast ballots - up 20 percent from the last election. They not only ousted the Liberals, Jean Charest lost his seat. The Parti Quebecois with Pauline Marois will form a minority government.
