SURVEY FINDS STRONG SUPPORT FOR DAVIS NEARLY ONE YEAR IN
NASSAU, Bahamas — In a recent survey conducted by Public Domain Research and Strategy, 70 percent of people polled said they approve of the job being done by Prime Minister Philip E. Davis, The Nassau Guardian reported on Tuesday, August 30, in an article written by Juan McCartney.
Also, 64 percent of respondents approved of the job being done by the current administration.
Twenty percent of respondents disapproved of the job the government is doing.
Public Domain said the survey was conducted by telephone August 22-23, with the main objective being to “gauge the general feeling of Bahamians regarding their approval of the current government”.
Public Domain said 828 people age 18 and older were surveyed through landline and mobile numbers based on random selection.
Asked whether they approve or disapprove of the job Davis is doing, 29 percent of all respondents said they strongly approve, while 41 percent said they somewhat approve.
Nine percent said they somewhat disapprove of the job Davis is doing.
Six percent of respondents said they strongly disapprove of the job Davis is doing.
Sixteen percent of respondents said they did not know.
Support for Davis was roughly the same among men and women.
However, older demographics expressed slightly more robust support of Davis.
The 18-34-year-old cohort voiced 70 percent approval of Davis, but also registered 17 percent disapproval.
The 55-plus demographic expressed 72 percent support of Davis, with only 12 percent disapproval.
As far as the job the government is doing, approval among men and women was also the same, as was approval throughout age demographics.
Davis got a 71 percent approval rate on New Providence, a 64 percent approval rate on Grand Bahama and a 66 percent approval rate on Abaco. See complete article in The Nassau Guardian at https://thenassauguardian.com/pm-scores-high/
