Yesterday, DhiFm conducted an opinion poll for the Presidential Election in Maldives and MDP Mohamed Nasheed bags 44.68%. Are the opinion polls really giving the right picture? Polls conducted by SMS in Maldives may not really give a right picture as there are many reasons. It’s not sure that all the citizens of Maldives are aware of this.

One party can really show a better result if they are informing the Poll information to their supporters and asking everybody to participate in such. Other reason not rely on such kind of polls are the percentage of participants. In this case, only 13265 SMS were received which is just about 5% of the number of voters in Maldives.
