http://umrresearch.com.au/doc/Singapore_Pr...May11_Final.pdf Short version - The gahmen had commissioned a pre-election study to gauge voter sentiment just before the GE. The study was carried out by an Australian private survey company. Results? 61% for P*P, 39% for Oppo (with a margin of error of +/-3.6% at 90% Confidence). Uncanny how they knew the results pretty much dead-on before any of us crossed a single voting slip, isn't it? To me the most interesting thing is the graphic on page 10 ("How voters feel about the parties"), showing that the WP essentially has the same "positive" rating (55%) as the P*P, but less "negative" rating. In other words, the WP was actually viewed as a *better* party on balance than the P*P. Well, well, well. If WP does very well in this term, there's some real hope for the next GE. But I think the best candidates from the other parties need to unite under the Hammer to stand a really good chance.
