"However, polls suggest that Mr Correa might struggle to win enough support (50% of voters) to secure approval of the new magna carta. A recent survey found that only 41% of Ecuadoreans would approve the new constitution. This raises the possibility of a big government defeat."
this type of stuff makes me laugh
do you or I know what's in the new constitution? No.
does any regular Ecuadorian know what's in the new constitution? No.
but they do a poll that asks would you vote for the new constitution, not knowing what the hell it is? well 41% would blindly say hell ya!
that's like asking you...would you eat what's inside this box? yes or no. apparently 41% of ecuadorians would say yes
but their spin is...ohhhh. Correa could have some trouble getting this passed, since only 41% would blindly follow him over a cliff.
I guess it takes all sorts
