AkpatiOzu1: All politics is local. We're talking of 2 blood brothers here and the pdp guy did worse now than the guy in 2015. PDP got 27% in 2015 and now they're getting 21%? Whereas APC got maybe 10% in the same cross Rivers in 2015 and now it's candidate is getting 25% in the governor's local government in an election he personally supervised? Well, we should just siddon jejely and wait for 2019 3 Likes |

This poll has exposed how south south usually votes.obudu with 75,000 voters churned out 17,000 participants yesterday in the governor's home base.this mirrors the real voting strength of cross river.i dont see how voters will turnout more in presidential elections that has 2 northerners than 2 indigenes that directly affect them.it doesnt tally.again,obudu local government is the most politically active and enlightened local council in the state alongside boki.going by this figures,pdp will have about 216,000 with apc polling 76000 during the presidential polls 3 Likes |

senatordave1: Actually the south doesn't have the political awareness like the north. Here as long as it doesn't touch you personally, you might not be so bothered but the average abok.i will save up to transport himself up north to vote for his brother. Na on top social media we Southerners dey get power In 2019 election, between buhari and another notherner, whoever carries the north wins the country. Like Akpabio said, "no deceit this time, it's North versus North. Choose your own because I've chosen my own" 4 Likes |

Shukuakukobambi:Your very correct in your analysis.it clearly shows that apc have made more progress than pdp.apc have penetrated ss/se than pdp have penetrated nw/ne.but i expected the apc chidleftains here to do better and narrow the margin of defeat like they did in bye election in yakurr. 2 Likes |

rummmy:It will not be different.this is my state,they are indifferent to apc and dont harbour hatred.since 2015,apc have gottn more than 25% in all polls in ss/se while pdp fails to do same in ne/nw.even if buhari doesnt get 25%,the turnout will be lower than this 1 Like |

donphilopus:Don't mix it up to decieve yourself. Presidential election is different from state election! The APC candiatte who contested the election is one of their own, a Cross River man and he's different from a Buhari as candidate. People can vote for party at the state level because of the candiate and vote another party at presidential election. How do explain Magnus Abe being voted as a senator under APC where Buhari failed woeful in 2015 election? 6 Likes 1 Share |

senatordave1: And you forgot that the two contestants are from the state. The voting is to individuals and not party but when it comes to the presidential election, it will be along party line, i.e PDP and APC. So that your analysis doesn't hold water. You are just consoling yourself. 1 Like 1 Share |

donphilopus: Shut up! I'm from Obudu. APC as a party didn't attract the vote, but the candidate who contested under the Umbrella of APC is loved by many. Most persons voted for him not for his party. The Obudu populace didn't want the lady, because she is from a different LGA and has never stepped her foot on Obudu soil. Nonetheless, PDP gavegave her the ticket to make up for the Demise of her husband. More like compensating the Family. Hope this helps? 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Shukuakukobambi:bros 2 of una just the make me laugh. This election was more than a PDP vs APC fight. The only reason the APC guy lost is because he is APC. The odds against the PDP candidate was huge. She is not from obudu, her husband was buried less than a month ago and she didnt even campaign. Did i tell you that PDP paid for votes? Oh yes they did. 2 Likes |
