survey

The International Republican Institute (IRI) conducted a survey in Cuba from July 1-August 4, 2009 and found more than four in five citizens on the island (82%) do not believe things are going well.

The survey showed a majority of Cubans would vote for fundamental political change (75%) and economic change (86%) if given the opportunity.

According to the IRI report, a total of 432 Cuban adults were asked questions ranging from perspectives on the economy, to the performance of the current Castro government. The survey has a margin of error of +/- five percent, and a 95 percent level of confidence. The survey was conducted in 12 Cuban provinces.
