Conducted from July 27 to August 7, 2026, the survey interviewed 16,963 voters across 276 constituencies, testing Dr. Bawumia in seven hypothetical one-on-one contests. Dr. Bawumia secured between 45.7 percent and 49.9 percent of national voter support across all matchups. He led Johnson Asiedu Nketia 45.8% to 42.4%, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson 45.7% to 42.8%, Hon. Haruna Iddrisu 45.9% to 41.5%, Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang 47.4% to 40.2%, Dr. Julius Debrah 48.4% to 37.9%, Hon. Eric Opoku 49.8% to 33.9%, and Prof. Joshua Alabi 49.9% to 34.4%.

Undecided voters ranged from 7.2 percent to 9.3 percent. The survey also found Dr. Bawumia winning between nine and eleven of Ghana’s sixteen regions in every tested matchup. The report emphasizes that these findings reflect public opinion at the time of the survey and should not be considered a prediction of future electoral outcomes.
