The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has witnessed a sharp decline in its support base, dropping from 35% in November 2024 to 21% in February 2025.
This is according to a special poll conducted by independent research firm Global InfoAnalytics, which was released via X on Sunday, February 16.
Meanwhile, the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) has recorded a historic rise in its support base—the highest since the firm began its polling.
“NPP’s base has declined from 35% in November 2024 to 21% in February 2025, according to the new poll. For the first time since Global InfoAnalytics polling began, the NDC has surpassed the NPP in party affiliations. The NDC now constitutes 55% of voters nationally, up from 33% in November 2024,” the post read in part.
The firm added, “It is uncertain how long this party realignment will last, but it will be interesting to see how things unfold in the coming months and years before the 2028 elections.”
In the Greater Accra Region, the NPP has suffered a similar fate, declining from 30% in November 2024 to 18% in February 2025.
“A special poll conducted in Greater Accra shows that the NPP’s decline in party affiliation is now nationwide. Compared to the last tracking poll in November 2024, the NPP has dropped from 30% party affiliation to 18%, while the NDC has moved from 41% to 59%.
“The data shows scores of NPP sympathizers and voters who normally don’t disclose their party affiliations shifting to the NDC,” Global InfoAnalytics noted.
The firm further stated that the “worrying aspect of the data for the NPP is that their voters did not move to the floating category or choose not to disclose, but rather shifted straight to the NDC. This could make it harder for them to regain support anytime soon.”
This comes after the NPP suffered its biggest election defeat in history, losing by a margin of 1.7 million votes to the NDC’s John Dramani Mahama in the recently concluded 2024 general elections.
