A fresh survey reveals shocking news for Ghana's opposition party. Research company Global InfoAnalytics found that people who skipped the 2024 elections would pick President Mahama over other candidates. The poll shows 66 percent of these voters would choose the current leader. Only 24 percent would back former Vice President Bawumia. The remaining 10 percent would pick different candidates.
The ruling party NDC beat the NPP with more than 1.7 million extra votes last year. Opposition leaders blamed low voter turnout for their crushing defeat. Dr. Bawumia and other NPP officials claimed they would have stayed as the government if their 2020 supporters had voted again. The new numbers suggest this theory was wrong.
Mussa Dankwah runs Global InfoAnalytics and shared the July 2025 results on Tuesday. He warned that another election might bring even worse results for the NPP. The poll found something unusual about regional support patterns. Voters from all parts of Ghana approve of how Mahama runs the country.
This marks the first time opposition stronghold areas have backed a sitting president from the rival party. Even some NPP supporters like what they see from Mahama. The survey shows 43 percent of opposition party members approve of his work. However, 46 percent of NPP voters still disapprove of the president's performance.
