David, former president of the Fédération des Femmes du Québec, was first elected as MNA in 2012. Before then, Gouin was a PQ riding – David ran and was defeated there in 2007 and 2008.
David’s sister, Hélène David, also ran for office this election – but for a different party. She won a Liberal seat in the riding of Outremont.
