Bawumia is expected to win the NPP flagbearer race by 78.37%, according to an independent poll

According to a recent, private, independent survey of NPP presidential primary delegates, which will take place on Saturday, November 4, 2023, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is in a commanding lead with 78.37% of the vote.

Kennedy Agyepong, a lawmaker for the NPP’s Assin Central constituency, is the Vice President’s closest challenger, trailing Dr. Bawumia with 20.86% of the vote. Dr. Owusu Akoto Afriyie, the third contender, is predicted to win 0.41% of the vote, while Francis Addai Nimoh will win 0.36%.

The sample size for the impartial survey, which was completed on Saturday, October 7, 2023, was 23,103 people. Out of those, 18,106 (78.37%) respondents selected Dr. Bawumia as their top choice. Kennedy Agyapong was chosen by 4,819 (20.86) respondents, Dr. Owusu Akoto Afriyie by 94 (0.41%), and Francis Addai Nimoh by 84 (0.36%) respondents.

The respondents were recruited from each of the country’s sixteen (16) regions. The poll’s results indicate that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the vice president, will garner the support of the majority of voters in each of the nation’s 16 regions.

In a related survey conducted by the same source and released on August 24 in advance of the NPP’s special electoral college elections on August 26, it was anticipated that Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia would win with a commanding margin of 71.7%. Dr. Bawumia received 629 votes overall at the poll’s conclusion, which is 68.15% of all valid votes cast.

The margin of error of plus or minus (+-) 3% proposed by the research team that conducted the survey was reflected in the results of the independent poll conducted on August 24 in comparison to the results of the special electoral college.
