WHY WE
CONDUCT
POLLS?
To foster the development of more
responsive policies and governance;
To help stakeholders diagnose and
address issues of public concern.
❖ Leaders from across the political
spectrum have reported that polls
are important to their work and
encourage continued polling;
❖ Inclusive process: the polling
instrument was developed in
consultation with political parties,
government, and civil society
leaders.

ABOUT
THE POLL
SAMPLE
❖ A nationally representative sample
(excluding occupied territories) including
oversampled areas of the Capital, Large
Urban, Small Urban, Rural and Minority
Settlements
❖ Large Urban stratum consists of cities with a
population 40K or more: Batumi, Zugdidi,
Rustavi, Poti, Gori, and Kutaisi
❖ Small Urban stratum consists of the rest of
the cities/dabas holding urban status, and
❖ Minority stratum consists of settlements,
where ethnic minorities (mostly Armenians &
Azerbaijani) compose at least 40% of the
voters in given settlement. Settlements
within this stratum are dispersed throughout
Kvemo Kartli, Samtskhe-Javakheti & Kakheti
regions.
❖ Fieldwork dates:
July 13-29, 2019
❖ 2,131 completed
interviews (41%

ABOUT
THE POLL
METHODOLOGY
We use random sampling at all stages. We use a
complex survey design:
❖ Stratification – dividing population in
relatively homogenous sub-groups; and
❖ Clustering – randomly selecting small
geographic areas for each sub-group
(stratum).
❖ Households are selected via random route
sampling;
❖ Respondents are selected using a Kish table;
❖ Randomly selected households and
individuals are not substituted; and
❖ All interviews were conducted face-to-face
with 18+ population, using tablets, in
Georgian, Armenian, and Azeri.
Quality control
❖ All interviewers
receive special
training
❖ CRRC central
office coordinators
conduct quality
control intervews

A hard climb for most
Georgians
July 2019 NDI surveywww.ndi.org/georgia-polls
Imagine there is a 10-step ladder
reflecting the economic standing of all
households in Georgia today. The first
rung of this ladder corresponds to the
lowest possible economic position in
society, while the 10th rung corresponds
to the highest possible position. Which
rung of this ladder do you think your
household stands on currently?
