@Tuesp1985: may i ask where do you have the "10% of 60" come from Braganza (talk) 20:37, 30 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi there Braganza. What Intercampus did was to ask voters if in the EP elections they would change party compared with their general election vote. 10% said that they would change party and the pollster then asked which party would get their vote, on just those 10% which amount 63 responses.

Last names

edit

There is some inconsistency regarding last names in tables. João Cotrim de Figueiredo is shortened to Cotrim in both the tables and the IL slogan, so I guess this one is correct. Applying the same rule of using the penultimate name, António Tânger Corrêa should be shortened to Tânger rather than Corrêa, and similarly Fidalgo rather than Marques, Fonseca rather than Castro, and Amaral rather than Dias. Am I missing anything? ערן117 (talk) 07:20, 31 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi there! João Cotrim Figueiredo is known as "Cotrim" and not Figueiredo because, and this is just my opinion, Cotrim is a less common surname than Figueiredo, this last one much more common. About the other candidates, other than Joana Amaral Dias, they are not well known so the practice is to use the last surname.Tuesp1985 (talk) 11:06, 15 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
