PMLN outclass popularity in Punjab, Increasing in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
Lahore (Tuesday, March 5, 2013) – Despite stirring a political storm in the country, the rise of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has not been able to dislodge Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) from its front runner position in the numerically important Punjab province.
Regions Where Survey Conducted (11 Regions/Territories)
Punjab 1 = Rawalpindi, Lahore and Gujranwala
Punjab 2 = Faislabad and Sargodha
Punjab 3 = Bhawalpur, D.G. Khan and Multan
Sindh 1 = (Karachi)

According to a survey conducted by Gallup Pakistan and PILDAT the PML-N tops the list on voting intention score in Punjab, followed by the PTI and the PPP respectively.
February 2013 political forecast is based on a nationwide poll of approximately 9660 voters in 300 villages and 200 urban localities.
Voting intention score of PML-N stands at 63% in North and Central Punjab, 69% in Western Punjab and 49% in Southern Punjab, shows the survey.
According to the consolidated findings of two nationwide polls on voting intentions, conducted by IRI and Gallup Pakistan respectively during past three months, the front runner in Pakistan’s elections scheduled in mid 2013 is the PML-N.
In Pakistan, election Surveys does not, infact can not show the real picture of different parties and its position on the ground. Its so strange that the popularity of the ANP in Balochistan has been shown as 13% while in Pakhtunkhwa it is just 11% !! Its totally rubbish and non-sense. The ANP has much more support in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa which will be proved on the day of election to everyone.
