Laura With
53% Support To Otto's 15% in Latest Poll
If the 2010 presidential elections were to
be held today, Laura would be hands down
winner, with a 53% support to according to
Otto's 15.7%, according to the latest poll
by Demoscopía for the Grupo Nación.
Laura Chinchilla, candidate for the Partido
Liberación Nacional (PLN) is the clear front
runner to her main rival, Otto Guevara of
the Partido Movimiento Libertario (ML) for
the Sunday, February 7, 2010 elections.
The poll results also indicate that Ottón
Solís of the Partido Acción Cuidadana (PAC)
has a 12.3% support, while the rest of the
pack lack behind with Rolando Araya of the
Alianza Patriótica party has a 3.7% support,
while Luis Fishman of the La Unidad (PUSC
party) a 1.5%, Oscar López of the PASE party
0.6% and Eugenio Trejos of the Frente Amplio
party 0.2%.
The poll is only an indication of what might
be, giving Chinchilla a commanding lead over
her rivals, especially Ottón Solís, who came
within a hair of beating Oscar Arias in the
2006 elections.
Laura, former vice-president and former
Justice minister and a career politician is
closer to her political aspirations of being
president, following in the footsteps of her
mentor, Oscar Arias, who has been chastised
in the past for publicly supporting Laura.
There is still lots of time before the
voters hit the polls and even though Laura
has is now seen as the best candidate and
the voters see her as president, they can be
fickle and can change their mind at a whim.
