European Tribune - Comments - US Congress helping Berlusconi's election campaign

US Congress helping Berlusconi's election campaign | 31 comments (31 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

It seems that whatever value this stunt had aesthetically, the latest polling (as of March 6) show the center-left coalition at 52 and the center-right coalition at 46, which is just about where the polls have been the whole campaign. If anything, Berlusconi is losing momentum if you look at the charts over the past several months.

Re: No poll change (none / 0)

Hm, but the two latest scientific polls (termometro is an internet poll, though apparently weighted and thus much more reliable that your usual freeped CNN poll) are from 1 March - the day of the speech. And that date is probably just the publishing date, with research done in the previous days. I think we should wait for the next polls to see the effect.

Re: No poll change (none / 1)

The poll was conducted between February 27 and March 1. So it may have just caught the tail of the Congressional circus, barking seals galore.

Am looking forward to next poll.
