The race for the presidency in the upcoming general elections on December 7th has heated up significantly. With only a few days remaining, presidential candidates and their respective parliamentary hopefuls are ramping up their campaigns and engaging more closely with communities. This period is essential as citizens make their final choices on whom to support, adding to the heightened tension across the political landscape.
According to multiple credible reports and analytics, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) continue to lead as the favorites in the upcoming elections. Global Info-Analytics, one of the key sources of this information, has been releasing frequent updates to monitor citizens’ preferences as election day approaches. In a recent survey by Global Info-Analytics, John Dramani Mahama of the NDC was in a strong position, garnering around 52.1% of the votes. However, new data suggests a shift in voter trends, which I will outline in this article.
The latest analytics results incorporate all polling data gathered from January 2022 through November 8, 2024. In the initial 2022 data, John Dramani Mahama (JDM) led with 53% support in a hypothetical match-up, while Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia (DMB) held 38%. As of today, JDM’s support stands at 52%, marking a 1% decrease, while DMB has risen to 41%, reflecting a 3% increase. These inferential statistics suggest a steady growth in support for the NPP’s candidate.
This update has sparked a strong reaction online, with netizens expressing varied opinions. Many are calling for intensified campaign efforts from their preferred candidates and parties, while others have voiced skepticism about the poll results. Below are some of the comments gathered from the discussions around this post.
