According to Global InfoAnalytics, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will win a parliamentary majority in the elections scheduled for December 7.
The most recent prediction states that the NDC will secure a majority in the 275-seat legislature by winning about 150 seats.
An independent candidate is expected to win one seat, while the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is expected to win 99 seats. The fact that 29 more constituencies are still too close to call emphasizes how fiercely tight the election is.
According to the report, John Dramani Mahama, the leader of the NDC, is expected to win the presidency with 52.2% of the vote.
It is anticipated that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of the NPP, his closest opponent, will receive 41.4%. It is anticipated that other candidates, such as Nana Kwame Bediako and Alan Kyerematen, will earn 3.0% and 2.5% of the vote, respectively, with 0.9% going to other candidates.
According to the research, Bawumia is expected to have dominance in areas like Ashanti, Eastern, and North East, while Mahama is the likely winner in ten regions, including Greater Accra, Central, Volta, and Northern.
Important Trends and Elements
According to the report, the NDC’s anticipated parliamentary gains are due to a combination of social and economic variables that affect public opinion as well as changing voter attitude in important areas.
Overall voter turnout was predicted to be 77.6%, with regional differences likely to have a significant impact on the results.
Both main parties are facing fierce competition in swing constituencies, where 29 parliamentary seats are thought to be too close to call.
In order to reduce the anticipated margin, the NPP must hold onto these seats.
