So if Synovate has done that research, they deserve no applause because like I\u2019m saying, a day old baby can do that assessment so Synovate has done nothing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In 2006, with 4 contestants, and in those days with the height of NPP propaganda at its apogee in terms of Prof. being a dead man, a dead man walking, Prof. Mills is a poodle, discerning NDC delegates went to congress on 22nd December 2006 in Legon and President Mills came out with 81.4 percent, the highest so far in any delegates&#8217; congress in the country. Those were the days when President Mills was put in a coffin and buried more than a hundred times.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now today when the man is strong and working, with all the things that are happening, that even in the home town of Nana Akufo-Addo, they are seeing the good work that President Mills is doing why would President Mills go for a delegate congress and get less than 70 percent; certainly he is even getting more than 81.4 percent\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He believes none of the candidates of the upcoming July congress can match the President so Synovate\u2019s poll is needless.<\/p>\n<p>Synovate\u2019s recent polls has tipped president mills at getting over 70 percent of the total votes whiles predicting 16 percent for Nana Konadu but Koku believes it is not authentic.<\/p>\n<p>The media researchers\/pollsters, formerly Steadman Group, said if elections were held in May, president Mills would lose.<\/p>\n<p>The opinion poll which is the second in two months, said if elections were held in May, Nana Akuffo-Addo would maintain his 43 percent obtained in the April poll with president mills trailing behind with three points.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Kwadwo Asare-Baffour Acheampong\/Asempa fm\/Ghana<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div readability=\"7\">\n<hr \/>\n<p>Add this page to your favorite Social Bookmarking websites\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>See the original post here: <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> The Communications Director at the office of the President, Koku Anyidoho has made mockery of a recent poll giving president Mills about 70% of votes in the NDC&#8217;s July congress.
