A new poll by Global InfoAnalytics suggests broad public support for several key recommendations contained in the Constitutional Review Commission’s report, released earlier this month.
According to the findings, a majority of voters back the proposal to extend the presidential term from four to five years. The poll released on Monday, December 29, shows that 57 percent of respondents approve of the change, while 36 percent oppose it.
The remaining seven percent said they did not have an opinion on the issue.
The survey also indicates strong support for a recommendation to prohibit members of parliament from holding ministerial positions.
On this proposal, 58 percent of voters expressed approval, compared with 32 percent who disapprove. Ten percent of respondents said they had no opinion.
Public opinion is similarly favourable toward lowering the minimum age required to run for president. The poll found that 55 percent of voters approve of reducing the age threshold, while 35 percent disapprove. Another 10 percent reported having no opinion.
Global Info Analytics conducted the poll between December 1 and December 21, 2025. The survey used a mixed-method approach, combining web-based questionnaires, telephone interviews, and face-to-face interviews. In total, 13,495 voters from across the country were sampled.
