Two weeks before April's local elections, the survey shows that Muscat remains more popular than his own party, which enjoys an eight-point lead over the Nationalist Party in voting intentions on a na- tional level. The survey shows the PN nar- rowing the gap between the two parties by a percentage point as the PN gained four points while the PL gained three points over their re- spective results for January.

The email reached MaltaToday after Said addressed a news conference yesterday, in the campaigning for the April 11 local elections. Prime Minister Joseph Muscat also took his electioneering to Said's home village, Nadur. The email by the whistleblower, who can now be named as Joe Cauchi, was one of the many pleas he has been making for payment for €50,000 in works commissioned by the Gozo ministry for private constituents. He is one of several contractors commis- sioned to do works for free for constituents, which were billed to the Gozo Ministry, but by claiming the works were part of public projects.
