Telephone survey carried out at the beginning of September by Faktum
N= 504 citizens, 18+

Faktum: The "yes" camp will celebrate on Sunday

The most recent poll conducted by Faktum found 77% of the 504 telephone survey respondents intend to participate in the referendum next Sunday. More than half, 56% of total respondents declared to vote for EU membership, while 16% intend to vote in opposition, leaving 16% undecided. Yet, of these undecided, under half (43%) lean towards supporting the EU, while 16% say they lean towards opposition (41% were unwilling to claim a tendency in either direction). Additionally, those who are convinced of their intention to vote “yes” reaches 56%, and those who are only hesitantly pro-EU make up a much smaller percentage of supporters, only 12%. From this we can see that supporters generally feel strongly about their choice. Overall, from their most recent study, Faktum predicts that current support for joining the EU in Estonia is as high as 73%.
