On the elections to the regional councils

All respondents eligible to vote (except Prague citizens) were asked the following question: ‘The elections to the regional councils are going to be held in October. Will you participate?’ The question was answered yes by 54% of those surveyed, while 33% said no and 13% did not know.

Those polled who expressed willingness to participate in the elections were then asked the following open question (without a list of parties being used): ‘What political grouping or party are you going to vote for in the elections to your regional council?’ The answers indicate that most votes would be given to the Civil Democratic Party (ODS, 28,5%) and the Czech Social Democratic Party (CSSD, 28,5%), followed by the Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia (KSCM, 16%) and the Christian and Democratic Union–Czechoslovak People’s Party (KDU-CSL, 8%) and the Green Party (SZ, 7%).
