‘Lee Jae-myung, Governor of Gyeonggi> Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol> Lee Nak-yeon, representative of the Democratic Party.
This is the result of a survey on the preferences of the next presidential candidates released on the 15th by the polling agency Gallup Korea. As a result of asking 1,000 people over the age of 18 (response rate of 15%) across the country on the 12th to 14th, Governor Lee Jae-myeong 23%, President Seok-yeol Yoon 13%, and Nak-yeon Lee 10% done.
After that, Ahn Cheol-soo, the representative of the National Assembly Party (3%), Hong Joon-pyo, an independent lawmaker (3%), and Yoo Seung-min, a former member of the People’s Strength (1%). Others (including about 20 respondents with less than 1.0%) accounted for 5%, and 41% did not respond to a specific person.
The change in the bilateral structure between Governor Jae-myeong Lee and CEO Nak-yeon Lee, who have been vying for the lead since last August’s investigation, is noticeable.
Governor Lee’s preference rose 3%p from the previous month’s survey, while CEO Lee’s preference fell 6%p from the previous month’s survey. Among the opposition presidential candidates, Congressman Hong’s preference rose 3%p from the previous month, and President Yoon’s preference remained unchanged from the previous month.
Democratic Party supporters moving from Lee Nak-yeon to Lee Jae-myeong?
Given the fact that presidential candidates are usually elected through the party’s primary election, the response of the Democratic Party supporters is changing. Democratic party supporters’ preference for this branch was 43%, up 8%p from the previous month’s survey. On the other hand, the preference of the Democratic Party supporters for Lee was counted at 23%, down 13%p from the previous month’s survey.
In this regard, Gallup Korea said, “In the support of the Democratic Party, CEO Lee continued to lead the Governor by 10%, and the gap in the fourth quarter of last year (at the time of the survey) narrowed and reversed in this survey.”
There were also some changes among the respondents who positively evaluated President Moon Jae-in’s performance and those who wished to maintain the current regime in the next presidential election.
Among the positive evaluators for the performance of the president’s duties, the preference for Governor Lee was 38%, up 8%p from the previous month, but the preference for Lee was 23%, down 10%p from the previous month. The respondents who answered “maintaining the current regime for the next presidential election” had a preference for this branch of 44%, up 10%p from the previous month, but the preference for Lee was 24%, down 10%p from the previous month.
The preference of this branch also rose in the middle and advanced classes. The liberal group’s preference for this branch was 42%, up 8%p from the previous month, and the preference for Lee was 21%, down 5%p from the previous month. The preference for this branch of the middle class was 24%, up 5%p from the previous month, and the preference for Lee was 7%, down 7%p from the previous month.
Meanwhile, the investigation was conducted through an interview with a telephone investigator. The sample error is ±3.1%p with a 95% confidence level. For detailed survey summary and results, refer to the website of Gallup Korea and the website of the Central Election Polls Review Committee.
