UK: YouGov snap poll finds viewers split on who won ITV general election debate
- A snap YouGov survey of 1,646 viewers conducted immediately after the debate
shows a close split, with 51% of viewers saying that Boris Johnson performed
best, once "don't know" responses were removed, and 49% backing Jeremy Corbyn.
Most viewers think both leaders performed well, with two thirds (67%) saying so
of Corbyn and almost six in ten saying likewise of Johnson (59%). Looking at how
viewers voted in 2017 shows, unsurprisingly, that Conservative voters are more
likely to back Boris (88%) and Labour voters much more likely to think Corbyn
did well (86%). Nevertheless, almost half of 2017 Tory voters (48%) think the
Labour leader did well, and one third (33%) of those who opted for Corbyn's
party at the last election think the Prime Minister made a decent show of it.
