Political Preferences

SUMMARY

The section reveals voters’ current party preferences, evaluations of Erdoğan’s performance and approval ratings, party opposition dynamics, and perceptions of Turkey’s most pressing issues. It also examines trust levels in different parties to solve these problems, as well as expectations about which country Turkey should resemble in order for society to feel content. In this way, it presents a comprehensive picture that reflects both political tendencies and social aspirations:

• If there were an election today, which party would you vote for? (direct preference and with undecided voters distributed)
• If you were to give a report card grade, what grade would you assign to Recep Tayyip Erdoğan for his overall performance as President?
• To what extent do you approve of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan?
• Is there a party you would never, under any circumstances, vote for?
• What do you think are Turkey’s two most important problems?
• Which party do you think can solve Turkey’s most urgent and important problems?
• In terms of state order, legal system, economy, and living standards, which country would you like Turkey to resemble in order to be happy?
