A plurality of Georgian citizens said the country was heading “in the right direction” in a new survey released on Thursday by the US National Democratic Institute and CRRC Georgia.
The two institutions asked citizens to rate the current direction of the country, with 37 percent responding by saying it was heading in the “right direction”, 31 percent saying the state was headed in the “wrong direction” and 26 percent saying it was not changing at all.
The survey showed a 14 percent increase among those who see the country going in the right direction.
Tbilisi residents and opposition supporters were the most critical about the country’s course among those involved in the polling, it also said.
The survey was run between December 3-20 through face-to-face interviews with a nationwide representative sample of Georgia’s adult population, excluding the occupied territories.
The poll involved 2,519 completed interviews, with the average margin of error at 1.6 percent.
