Yingluck's popularity on the wane, Abhisit's on the rise: Abac Poll

Although the popularity of the prime minister has slightly dropped while that of the opposition leader is increasing, more than one in two people have no confidence in the two, based on Abac Poll released on Thursday.

From September to this month, PM Yingluck Shinawatra saw her popularity dropped from 38.6 per cent to 34.7 per cent. The profiling of Yingluck’s supporters showed that the majority are males in the age group of older than 50 and with less than tertiary education.

In the same period, Democrat Abhisit Vejjajiva enjoyed a slight increase in popularity from 12.9 per cent to 14.2 per cent.
The majority of Abhisit’s supporters are university graduates and urban residents.
