On April 15, Massive Caller conducted a thousand surveys to find out who they would vote for if that day were the presidential election. Of those thousand phone calls made by a robot, 169 people (16.9%) answered that they did not know who they would vote for on June 2. These indecisions could change the course of the country if they decide for one side or the other. If they decided for the third candidate, they would not give the presidency to him. What are we doing as a society to understand the lack of clarity for these people? How are we helping almost 17 million people to decide?
For this 2024 the electoral roll is 100 million 41 thousand people. Although we must subtract those living abroad who received notification that their applications were rejected after having been approved, to this figure we must add those in jail who can vote because they are not yet criminals but are in jail just for not leaving, and finally we must take into account that in the last presidential election only 63.42% of the electoral roll voted. So, of the almost 17 million undecided of the total electoral roll, there are still 10 million 722 thousand citizens of legal age who could vote without knowing who to vote for.
