Poll respondents want Pita to be re-nominated until he is elected PM
21 Sept 03:54Key points summarised by AI
A Nida Poll reveals over 40% of respondents advocate for Move Forward leader Pita Limjaroenrat's continuous re-nomination as Prime Minister until he secures the position.
Conversely, a majority (69%) suggests limiting Pita's attempts to one or two, advising him to yield to the Pheu Thai party if he fails to gain senatorial approval.
Respondents overwhelmingly recommend the Move Forward party compromise on contentious policies (98%) and consider inviting current government parties to join their coalition (88%).
Should Pita's bid fail, the poll highlights strong public preference for Pheu Thai candidates, with Paetongtarn Shinawatra and Srettha Thavisin emerging as top alternative prime ministerial choices.
