Here are the key findings of the Gallup Pakistan Poll:

1) Widespread support for dissolution of National Assembly in Pakistan

2) Majority don’t believe in US Conspiracy to remove Imran Khan, although split exists along party lines.Significant majority 64% responded to this question and say that Imran Khan was being ousted because of inflation and not because of a foreign conspiracy.

3) Public Opinion split over performance of Imran Khan

Respondents were asked ‘ Imran Khan ruled for 3.5 years. Are you satisfied with the performance of their government or not satisfied?

To this question 54% said they are dissatisfied and 46% said they are satisfied’

4) Anti Americanism: Only 1 in 3 consider the US to be a friend

Respondents were asked: Some people think that America is a friend of Pakistan, and some people think it is an enemy. what is your opinion?

Almost 2 in 3 Pakistanis(72%) think US to be an enemy. Anti Americanism was highest among PTI Supporters (80% thought America was an enemy) and lowest among PML-N voters (65%)

The poll included a random sample of 800 households (18+ males and females) interviewed by telephone on April 3 and 4, 2022. Provincial breakdown: 66% Punjab, 18% Sindh, 13% KPK and 4% Balochistan. Urban 34%, rural 64%. Margin of error: +-3-5%, 95% Confidence Level.

Gallup Pakistan's note on Sample Size: The sample size used in this survey is quite adequate even in comparison to international standards. Gallup US Daily poll is 500 and the Gallup Poll Social Series is 1000, both having a track record of reliable predictability for the USA (a country nearly 100 million larger in population of Pakistan). According to Five Thirty-Eight, one of the most credible sources on polling in the US: "Surveying 2,000 voters substantially reduces error compared with surveying 400 of them, but surveying 10,000 voters will produce only marginal improvements in accuracy compared with the 2,000- person survey".

People are sick of these traitors and thieves.
The Pakistani public is finally waking up.

 

[Rank]

trust me people dont like IK but when they see these traitors, they literally support ik against these convicts… courts, establishment need to understand one thing, people of Pakistan fedup with NS SS Zardari Fazlu

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

The popularity and legitimacy of IK in the eyes of the common Pak folks is now like that of Mujib in the East Pak during 1970 election! Only difference is IK is the PM and a patriot, but Mujib wasn't...

 

[fitpOsitive]

People don't support Imran more, they hate Nawaz and Zerdari more.

 

[Deltadart]

This poll should be an eye opener for the scum of the earth opposition. Because, Pakistan is slowly waking up to the ugly side of this treacherous opposition.

The evil souls in the opposition love to scheme with the sworn enemies of pakistan, and will not cease and desist from creating trouble for the nation. They have no morals, nor shame. Their god is money and power, and they will leave no stone unturned to get back the power to ruin what's left of this nation. Only God can stop them now, not our incompetence, weak, and totally corrupt system.

Sir with all due respect, your comments are not in touch with the reality.. nonsense

 

[Hyde]

I think elections are the only way forward to remove this deadlock otherwise even Coalition of the opposition cannot work if they come to power. This tussle will continue until the new mandate is given by the public and Khan will get vote of sympathy for not letting him complete 5 year

اہم ترین نکتہ: حزب اختلاف کو سب مل گیا یعنی عمران خان گئے، الیکشن آ گئے، بزدار گئے وغیرہ مگر ایک بات نہیں ہوئی- خان نے انکی حکومت نہیں بننے دی ورنہ سب کچھ تہس نحس کر دیتے- یہی دل میں کانٹا ہے-اب اگر فوج یا عدلیہ نےانھیں دوبارہ حکومت دے دی اور الیکشن نہ ہویے تو سب کا منہ کالا ہوگا

Oh, boy that's a huge endorsement and support.... No wonder the corrupt opposition is running around screaming.... They are afraid of elections and want to given the power by the establishment by hook or crook ...

 

[Wood]

Interesting thread. Majority of people don't believe that an American conspiracy is responsible for the fall of Imran's administration and majority of people are not satisfied with Imran's performance. People cite inflation as reason for dissatisfaction. Taken together, I see that there is a good chance for Imran to loose the election that he so desperately wants.

These polls do not reflect the distribution of the opinion across the constituencies and we also do not know the reliability of such attempts. But it is interesting nevertheless

1- Overseas Vite
2- EVM
3- NAB and FIA cases.

That's what they want.

That's very biased reporting, and a very one sided image. In the source you provided, Gallup Pakistan, there are 3 more relevant surveys which you haven't taken into account.

One is that whether people believe if Imran Khan is being ousted due to inflation or due to foreign conspiracy, where 2/3 have answered "due to inflation."

So in that context, where do you think the first survey regarding dissolution of the Assembly stands.

I support Imran Khan but if this one survey, also not taking into account the other questions posed and responses to that, won't give you an accurate image of public opinion.

 

[SIPRA]

After being expelled, in the way, he has been, I don't think IK is coming back in power, after next election. The powers (Read US and the Establishment), which ousted him, would do everything possible to stop him.
