This distribution reveals a moderate polarization in the public perception, where support is in the majority, but distrust retains considerable weight.\n\nThe credibility of the presidential speech follows a similar trend. When asked how much they believe the president when he addresses the country, <strong>41.8% responded that they believe him a lot and 17.0% that they believe him somewhat<\/strong>. However, <strong>19.7% expressed that they believe him little and 20.2% that they do not believe him at all<\/strong>, which confirms that public opinion is divided regarding the veracity and consistency of the official message.\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>You can also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/abinader-informa-que-25\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Abinader reports that 25% of the electric service<\/a><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\nDespite that division, the evaluation of overall performance maintains a favorable balance. <strong>52.1% believe that the president has done a lot for the country, while 26.4% understand that he has done little and 18.6% that he has done nothing<\/strong>. These data suggest that, although there may be questioning in specific sectors, a majority recognizes progress or relevant actions during his administration.\n\nIn view of a possible electoral scenario, the president&#8217;s political capital remains competitive. 46.2% say they would vote for him again if he were a presidential candidate again, and 15.5% say they might. In contrast, 32.4% indicate that they would definitely not vote for him. The panorama thus draws a leadership with a solid base of support, but also with a defined opposition that could intensify the political debate in the coming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@PRMOFICIAL-PRM\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@PRMOFICIAL-PRM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">years<\/a>.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Almost six out of ten citizens express some degree of trust in the presidential figure.
