Since 2015, Thisday election has always been wrong because it has always been more political than scientific. They should take a cue from CNN and Fox news. CNN and Fox news will give you scientific poll irrespective of their political leaning.

This day has never gotten right with their projections. They're political jobbers. Thisday is projecting Atiku to win Delta and Edo state. Lol. Mad people.

ANAP poll came out last week and dealt a death blow to PDP, so This day released a poll to raise their spirits. Also, APC and Baba Lagos have been threatening Nduka; so Nduka released a poll that favors both PDP and APC. They just put numbers together and declared victory for their candidates. No door to door interview, no phone calling; not even an online reach out to voters. Just random numbers off the head of the Thisday journalists.

Nigerian votes is not measurable, they depend on social media for data and analysis which is deficient and unrealistic in our election

Twice I have relied on Thisday poll and twice they were wrong. Nothing scientific. It's a big shame

Atiku has higher chances than winning in Mali than in Delta. Even Atiku won’t win Adamawa.

Lolz.... just seeing it now

The person who prepared the "projections" did nor even try to disguise.

He was just dragging the excel box down anyhow. See how he used Excel to give Atiku 20% in 5 successive states in the southwest.

Very funny and dumb fellow

That ANAP Poll really dealt a severe blow. Atiku threatened to withdraw funding that's why u see Thisday throwing stupid polls and Mikano boys running around for endorsement. They even have to masturbate on Authur Eze endorsement.

I concede, like i have said variously here, that Delta state will be Atiku best state in the SS im the next elections only cos of Okowa.

But he may not likely win it.

He will almost certainly lose in all the other SS states.

Why? ENTHUSIASM!

Atiku does NOT have enthusiasm in the south south. Not the people nor even PFP members in the SS is enthusiastic about Atiku. Im fact, as a SS person myself, i hardly see any PDP politician or even candidate selling or even talking about Atiku. They hardly also put his pics in their own campaigns. Etc.

Where then would he get votes from??

One is a scientific poll(by the way, all pools done so far has all indicated one thing) while the other is just a Projection.

Hope you know the difference bw a pool and projection.

Let me help you out: examples of Projections are the sort of things you and guys like my good fwend(garfiled) do regularly here on Nairaland: pull from their imagination who they THiNK will win the elections next year

Atiku is also likely to win akwa ibom state also.the pdp is deep there...
Elections is beyond enthusiasm.most of those obi fans are in the urban areas.where obi will get votes from is delta north due to igboconbection and also parts of Delta central.but in the creeks of delta south,pdp holds sway.obi has no chance there.that is where half of delta votes are manufactured.a lot of people in ss in addition love pdp.they are diehard fans.there are others who dislike igbos and hold distrust for obi....

See,I discovered that in 2015 and 2019,voters in delta were given the osun 2018 rerun treatment were only pdp fans were allowed to vote.there was massive intimidation and suppression of apc votes.expect same scenario.
Generally ss will be tight but whoever will win will do so narrowly

Tinubu and his group have cowed the ThisDay and Arise news. They are now singing like birds for Tinubu . Can you imagine a reputable news outfit going to beg one individual. CNN fought with Trump as a candidate and a sitting President without fear. Well, I don't blame Arise, their anachor man Abati is carrying bargages.

I laughed real hard when I saw the ss projection. By the way, why should they resort to projection instead of a verfiable offline poll? They are a bunch of lazy organization period.

you're wrong bc you think backward. ANAP was a polling which voters' opinions were randomly sampled while this day took their projection out of their head. That's why it's wrong whether it favors Obi or emi lokan.
