this poll, we asked which party candidate to support in the local election, which is less than two months away, and it came out that the power of the Democratic Party and the people was tight.

Although both parties have each had the upper hand in Honam and Yeongnam, the metropolitan area and the rest of the region are in the fog.

We asked which party candidate to support in the nationwide local election on June 1.




The contention was within the margin of error with the Democratic Party 31.2% and the People's Power 33.7%.




The Justice Party accounted for 2.3%, and 3.4% answered that they support the People's Party, which is undergoing the process of unity with the power of the people.




By region, the Democratic Party prevailed in Gwangju, Jeollabuk-do, and in Daegu, Gyeongbuk, Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam regions, but it was difficult to distinguish between superiority and inferiority in metropolitan areas such as Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi, which were the winners of the presidential election.



[Maeng Jin-woo / Head of Next Research Headquarters: The gap in approval ratings in Yeongnam and Honam regions was clearly shown as in the results of this election.

However, the disparity in approval ratings in other regions is not large.]



We asked what kind of results would be desirable for the new government inauguration on May 10 and this local election in Batu.




The support for the ruling party candidate for the stability of the Yun Seok-yeol government was 46.6%, and the opposition candidate for checking the Yun Seok-yeol government was 44.6%, similar to the response of the preferred party candidate, it was tight within the margin of error.




Even in the middle class, the theory of stability and the theory of checks were similar.




The approval rating of President Moon Jae-in, who is about to leave office, for state management was 44.5% doing well and 48.9% not doing well.




Compared to the survey conducted in early February, before the election, the positive evaluation was slightly higher, and the negative evaluation was below 50% for the first time since the survey started in July last year.



This survey was commissioned by Next Research by SBS and received responses from 1,200 voters nationwide on the 6th and 7th, and the sampling error is ±3.1%p at the 95% confidence level.
