Poll results released today by the National Democratic Institute (NDI or the Institute) and CRRC Georgia find that Georgians remain concerned about the state of the economy and healthcare. Following months of political crisis and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the public is pessimistic about the direction of their country and the performance of institutions.

Almost half of Georgians (45%) said that the vaccination process is going badly. Critically, 42% of citizens also feel that they do not have enough information about the vaccination process; the lack of information is especially high in rural settlements (47%).

The results reflect data collected between July 13-25, through telephone interviews with a nationwide representative sample of Georgia’s adult population, excluding occupied territories, that included 2,016 completed interviews. The average margin of error is +/- 1.3%. Respondents were selected using the random-digit-dial method.
