The survey was conducted in July by New York-based pollster, Vishnu Bisram, for the North American Caribbean Teachers Association (NACTA). These and other findings were obtained in the poll that queried voters’ views on a number of issues impacting Guyana.
Thirty-nine per cent of those polled said they are satisfied with the performance of the government, while 43 per cent said they approved of the performance of President Donald Ramotar. Respondents are divided on whether or not a snap election should be called soon to resolve the parliamentary crisis of a minority government.
However, when asked how they would vote if an election were called, 44 per cent said they would vote for the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C); 35 per cent, the A Partnership for National Unity (APNU); five per cent, the Alliance For Change (AFC), two per cent the Justice For All Party (JFAP); and less than one per cent, other parties. Thirteen per cent are undecided.
Disenchanted government supporters who voted for the AFC last November said they are disappointed with the party’s behaviour and its close alliance with the APNU, expressing the view that they may very well return to the fold of the ruling party.
