French EU referendum polls put 'non' camp ahead at 54%
 With just over two weeks to go before the French cast their ballots in a referendum on the EU constitution, a poll gave 54 per cent to the 'no' camp on Saturday, while one a day earlier had 'yes' ahead at 52 per cent. In one survey carried out for the Wanadoo Internet provider, 54 per cent of those who had made up their minds said they would vote yes while 46 per cent said no. Twelve per cent were undecided in the survey of 858 people by telephone. On Friday a TNS-Sofres/Unilog poll for Le Monde newspaper, radio station RTL and TV news channel LCI indicated that 52 per cent of French voters intended to ratify the treaty and that 48 per cent were against it, but 29 per cent of those surveyed said they may still change their minds ahead of the May 28 vote. Two other polls carried out this week suggested the running was neck-and-neck with one offering a 50-50 result and the other giving 51 per cent to the yes camp. French polls do not publish a margin of error. Posted by: Fred 2005-05-16 |
