Super Poll shows 57.5 percent agree with Senate choosing premiership candidate

 

 

BANGKOK: -- The majority of the people polled by Super Poll agree with the proposal that the House and the Senate should jointly nominate an outsider candidate for the premiership post if the House representatives cannot agree themselves a candidate from the party’s lists of candidates, according to the findings of the Super Poll Research Office released on Sunday.

 

The opinion poll shows that 57.5 percent of the 1,167 respondents agree with the proposal against 42.5 percent who disagree, said Dr Noppadol Kannikar, head of the research office.

 

The poll also shows 62.9 percent of the respondents support the use of Section 44 of the interim constitution to dissolve the House if its members cannot agree on the formation of a government in the future.

They found out that "Thai Researchers in Community Happiness" did not look very serious, so they call it Superpoll now.

Yes changing the name will certainly add more credibility to their findings !

Villagers interviewed also said that they had never heard of English Premier League teams being chosen this way but were open to the idea.

No need for a fortune teller to predict who will be the "next" PM?

 

This would be funny, if it weren't so sad.

A waste of good monies that could've been spent on flood mitigation.

Once upon a time in a kingdom far far away (from reality) "...the poll...shows 62.9 percent of the respondents support the use of Section 44 of the interim constitution to dissolve the House if its members cannot agree on the formation of a government in the future...".

 

And they all lived happily ever after, under junta control!

Another dodgy propaganda poll.

1,167 respondents . Isn't the correct spelling for something like this Super Bull?

80% of the surveyed population was totally illiterate and these people were told if they did not understand the question to simply vote, YES.

Polls are an interesting thing. I had friends over the years that had another kind of poll a fishing pole. Boy could they tell some whoppers.
