United Surveys poll for Virtual Poland: Would Mentzen be a good president?

dzienniknarodowy.pl 2 months ago

Sławomir Mentzen has been at the forefront of presidential polls for months. This time, however, the respondents were asked not who had the best chance of winning, but whether the candidate of the Confederate would work as president of Poland.

The United Surveys survey conducted for Virtual Poland shows that 63.9% of respondents do not believe that Mentzen would be a good president. Only 3.3% of this is certain, and 24.2% think it is. It is not adequate to talk about real social support – but there is simply a signal that the candidate of the Confederation is not completely deleted.

The survey appeared just after the debate in Koński – an event that would give voters a chance to compare candidates in a direct clash. Mentzen did not appear in the debate. His absence was widely commented on and may affect how he is perceived by undecided voters. The deficiency of confrontation with competitors is simply a hazard – it is easy to perpetuate the impression of avoiding hard questions.

Where does Mentzen gain?

Although the overall consequence is unfavorable for him, Mentzen maintains a strong position among men – 42 percent of them believe that “more” would be a good president and 5 percent are convinced of it. The most sympathizers are among those aged 30–39.

He was besides amazingly affirmative in the eyes of... part of the ruling coalition voters. 11% of them stated that Mentzen "more" would work as president. It's not much, but as Dr. hab notes. Renata Mieńkowska-Norkiene, "the 11 percent in the second circular could turn distant from Trzaskowski". In a levelled race, any group can find the result.

Among the opposition voters counted together (PiS, Confederates, Together) Mentzen is much better – as much as 54% think that he would be a good president (including 8% is certain). This shows that the candidate has a tough electorate, but besides clear boundaries – for most of the society remains a policy of doubt.

Although present most Poles do not see him at the Presidential Palace, Mentzen is not out of the game. Especially if support for the main candidates – Trzaskowski and Nawrocki – begins to crumble. Then even those 11 percent dissatisfied voters can change the dynamics of the second round.

Absence in the debate in Koński may have weakened his message, but if Mentzen finds a way to attract the indecisive and convince more women, his run may inactive gain momentum
