47% of Uruguayans has decided his vote for Wide Front facing the elections 2024, which thus stretched its advantage with respect to the Multicolor Coalition, according to the latest survey published by the consulting firm Cifra.
He FA It increased its voters by 3% during the summer, going from 44 to 47%, while the ruling party grew just one point, going from 41 to 42%. Thus, the opposition went from leading by three points to surpassing the representatives of the current government by five.
As for the Coalition parties, the National Party is the most multitudinous, with 31%, while the Colorado Party would bring together 6%, Town meeting would reach 2%, the Independent Party It would add 1% and 2% would vote for the ruling party, although without specifying which space.
Although the level of undecided and annulled or blank votes continues to be high and reaches 11%, that segment also shrank, so that there are fewer and fewer Uruguayans to conquer for both political spaces.
Meanwhile, by geographical area, the Wide Front was consolidated in Montevideo, where he increased his voting intention from 50% to the current 58%, while the Coalition leads in the inside with 47% of accessions, one point more than in 2023.
The importance of internal elections
From Cifra they anticipated that the elections are anticipated as close and slipped that the growth of the FA may be due to its four well-defined pre-candidacies, with two of them “attractive for relatively large groups of voters”, in reference to Carolina Cosse and Yamandú Orsi. Even more so in a context of great electoral offer.
Instead, they pointed out that the coalition has “a much larger offer,” both from pre-candidates and parties. His lower number of votes is explained “in part because for many it is not clear who will be pre-candidates, apart from the two most defined of the National Party, Álvaro Delgado and Laura Raffo”, indicated the consultant.
In this regard, he recalled that in the 2019 elections the candidacies of Ernesto Talvi (PC) and Guido Manini Ríos (Open Town Hall), which were fundamental for the victory of the current president Luis Lacalle Pou.
On that level, it is expected that after the internal elections on Sunday, June 30, with a single candidate per sector, some undecided voters will finish defining their vote.
