Fence sitters – the last frontier

As voters prepare to vote in the P176 Kimanis by-election, the key question of who will win, will be known officially Saturday (Jan 17) when the Election Commission announces the winner, likely around 10pm, or earlier barring hiccups.

Insap and its ground team have had their fingers on the pulse for this by-election. We also managed to run an extensive face-to-face survey from Jan 3 to 15 covering 609 respondents. To put things into perspective, Insap performed a baseline sampling from the day of nomination, and subsequently spread the survey over two weeks of campaigning to capture the shifts in voting trends.
