Citizens about electoral method, competence and position of the president of the republic

We asked all the respondents about which electoral method is, according to their point of view, the most suitable for the Czech Republic. The Czech public in general and also all the important subgroups of the population agree that the president of the republic should be elected by all voters. This electoral method was in total favoured by 57 % interviewees. The current electoral method (president elected by the Parliament) is considered the most suitable by one fifth of the respondents (20 %) and 12 % view as optimal the method of election by a wider group of electors.
