Poll: 46% of Latvians Satisfied With 15th Saeima Election Results
In a poll by the TV3 programme "900 sekundes", 46% of Latvian residents aged 18 to 65 said they are satisfied with the results of the 15th Saeima election, while 38% are not.
A poll carried out by the programme "900 sekundes" on the Latvian commercial television channel TV3 shows that residents are divided over the results of the 15th Saeima election, although those who are satisfied slightly outnumber those who are not. The Saeima is Latvia's parliament, elected in general elections, so the survey indicates how the public views the outcome of the vote.
What the poll found
The respondents were Latvian residents aged 18 to 65. They were asked whether, overall, they are satisfied with the results of the 15th Saeima election.
The answers were split as follows:
- 46% said they are satisfied, which is more than two fifths of those surveyed;
- 38% said they are not satisfied, which is almost two fifths;
- 16% did not give a specific answer.
The gap between the share of satisfied and dissatisfied respondents is eight percentage points. All answers together add up to 100%.
What the source does not say
The report does not state when the poll was conducted, how many people took part or what the margin of error is. It also does not explain which parties or candidates' results people are pleased or displeased with. The findings apply to the stated age group, not to all voters.
