When asked to choose between the two, the majority picked Micheál Martin over Leo Varadkar to be the next leader.
A new poll, conducted by Irish PR firm PR360, has discovered that with less than a week to go until the day of the general election, 28% of voters still don’t know for sure who they are going to vote for.
The final poll, as part of PR360’s 2020 Leaders’ series, also revealed that when given the choice between the two, 53% chose Micheál Martin to be the next Taoiseach, with just 47% picking Leo Varadkar.
Additionally, 26% of voters have changed their voting preferences since the campaign began, with 40% saying they have completely “tuned out” of the campaign.
Dan Pender, managing director of PR360, stated that “63% of people have identified public services and quality of life as the number one change issue, with government formation and tax cuts distant change factors.
“The preferred choice for next Taoiseach has remained largely consistent over the three weeks.”
Amanda Glancy, PR360’s director of policy and campaigns, added:
“Two of the big takeaways from the third and final poll in the PR360’s 2020 Leader series are to be found in the extent of respondents who want to see change through an improvement in public services and a better quality of life, and also the significant number of respondents who have changed their voting preferences since the start of the campaign.”
