INSCOP Director Remus Ștefureac announces Nicușor Dan’s level of trust in opinion polls: “Such a figure has nothing to do with reality”

President Nicușor Dan currently enjoys a confidence level of between 16% and 18% among Romanians, according to INSCOP measurements, the institute’s director, Remus Ștefureac, said in an interview with aktual24.ro. He rejected reports that the head of state had reached a score of only 10%.

“Of course, compared with the time of the elections, it is obvious that polls show a decline in confidence in the head of state. We have seen comments circulating that he has only 10% confidence. Well, such a figure has nothing to do with the reality we measure. The president’s score is hovering around 16–18%. Not 10%, but certainly, indeed, it is much lower than, let’s say, the initial level,” Remus Ștefureac told aktual24.ro.

The INSCOP director explained that the erosion of confidence affects all leaders associated with those in power. He also mentioned Ilie Bolojan, who reportedly began governing with a high score, followed by a decline, a recovery amid the no-confidence motion, and further adjustments.

According to Ștefureac, these developments are linked to the overlap of economic difficulties and political instability. You can find the full interview on aktual24.ro.
