Evaluation of the activities of the governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region
- According to the results of a survey conducted by the Rating Group in December 2012, about 80% of residents of Dnipropetrovsk region know who currently serves as the head of the Regional State Administration. At the same time, 3% believe they know who the governor is, but during the survey named a different person. Nearly one in five respondents (17%) do not know or do not remember the governor’s surname.
- A relative majority of respondents were unable to clearly assess the governor’s performance and gave a neutral evaluation (“neither good nor bad”) — 42%. At the same time, almost as many residents of Dnipropetrovsk region (40%) evaluate the governor’s performance positively (7% — very good, 33% — rather good). About every tenth respondent evaluated his work negatively or was undecided.
- Almost half of respondents (48%) believe that the situation in the region has improved since the appointment of the current head of the Regional State Administration (7% — significantly improved, 41% — somewhat improved). About one-third believe that the appointment of the current governor had no impact on the situation in the region (36%). Another 5% reported a deterioration of the situation, and about every tenth respondent could not determine their answer.
- If residents of the region had the opportunity to elect the head of the Regional State Administration, almost every second respondent would vote for the current governor (47%). About 6% would vote for another candidate, and 14% would not participate in such elections. At the same time, about one-third (32.3%) could not decide on their choice.
