A recent poll conducted by Global Info Analytics, a Ghanaian polling agency, has suggested the incumbent Member of Parliament for Gushegu and Deputy Minister of Transport, Hassan Tampuli, may lose his seat in the 2024 Parliamentary election.
The poll indicated that Tampuli’s main challenger, Yussif Malimali of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), is leading with 56.5% of the votes, while Tampuli trails behind with 41.9%.
According to the poll, 12% of Tampuli’s 2020 voters have switched their allegiance to Malimali, while 75% of new voters, including first-time voters and those who did not vote in the previous election, are supporting the NDC candidate.
Mussa Dankwa, Executive Director of Global Info Analytics, analysing the poll results on Channel One TV’s Citiuation Room, advised Tampuli to identify his weaknesses in the electoral area, including demographics and key issues.
“In the questionnaire, we asked voters, ‘Who did you vote for in the last parliamentary election?’ So you have those who said Malimali, those who said Tampuli. Some said they didn’t vote and others said they would not disclose how they voted. So we looked at those who said they voted for Tampuli in 2020. We realised that twelve per cent of them had switched their votes for Malimali.”
“Among those who said they didn’t vote in the last election which includes older voters and first-time voters, largely, 75% of them are voting for the NDC candidate, which is Malimali.”
