Pollster, Ben Ephson has insisted the Convention People’s Party (CPP) and their flagbearer, Ivor Greenstreet won’t mae any difference in the December polls.
Speaking on CTV’s Dwabre Mu morning show on August 24, he said the party has over the years failed to garner even one percent of votes in all democratic elections held.
“I doubt the CPP will make any good showing in the 2020 polls,” he said.
Mr Ephson added, “If you add all the amount of votes the small parties get in their parliamentary elections, their presidential candidates don’t get any of that because the electorate say voting for the flagbearers of the small parties is tantamount to wasting their ballot, so, they’d rather vote for their parliamentary candidates and vote for the presidential candidates of either the biggest opposition party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) or the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP)”, he analysed.
In Mr Ephson’s estimation, “If the CPP gets two per cent of the 2020 ballots, they would have done very well”, adding: “The truth is just one”.
The CPP over the weekend reelected their 2016 presidential candidate, Ivor Greenstreet to lead them again in the December 2020 polls.
