RABA Research Poll Shows Loretta Butler-Turner Favored by 13 Points
To Put Together a FNM Leadership Team
NASSAU, Bahamas – A survey of 350 Free National Movement (FNM) voters conducted via phone from May 9, 2016 through June 17, 2016, shows that they overwhelmingly prefer a leadership team selected by Loretta Butler-Turner (36%) as opposed to Hubert Minnis (17%) or Brent Symonette (22%).
The RABA Research survey finds widespread dissatisfaction with the current state of the FNM. When asked to describe the FNM, 54% of delegates (190 out of the 350 surveyed) agreed with a statement that said: “The FNM is a mess. It needs a new leader as soon as possible if it is going to win.” Only 31% of delegates were satisfied with the current state of the FNM, while 14% did not have an opinion.
Particularly noteworthy was self-identified party preference. When asked which party would they choose if the election were held today, 39% either did not know or refused to give an answer. For nearly 2 in 5 members of the party faithful to be uncertain about which party to support is deeply problematic for FNM, and demonstrates how unhappy they are with the state of their party.
