Final Pre-electional Somaliland Poll Strongly Projects UDUB Party Winning by 54.5% of the Vote.

The final Polls before the Somaliland Presidential Election - By Somaliland Public Policy Independent researchers Idris .A. Farah (Gaas) and M.A Shine are Research unit and Directors.

While none of the contesting parties has conducted scientific and credible polls regarding Somaliland voter’s attitudes and preferences showing strong correlation between party campaigns and the actual wining of votes, they all have made strong forecasting about their prospects for victory.  It’s not unusual for Somaliland political parties to claim victories that are contrary to the polls that have been conducted by independent observers. Nevertheless, based on our observations neither Kulmiye nor UCID has shown any capability for capturing the highest office in the land. Most independent political analysts we talk to believe that the fledging opposition parties lack the capacity to run effective campaigns to dislodge the entrenched UDUB party.
