13 maltatoday | SUNDAY • 7 APRIL 2019 NEWS EUROPEAN ELECTIONS THE strong showing by Miriam Dalli and Alfred Sant ensures both will be elected MEPs but the race to the top of the party list may be a tight one. This is how their voters compare. Miriam Dalli enjoys an evenly spread voter base across genders and age, something that is less apparent in the support for Al- fred Sant. Dalli has the support of 8.5% of women and 8.7% of men. She has a spread of support that ranges from a low of 5.5% among young voters to a high of 10.7% among those aged 51 to 65. The short range means that her voter base is more evenly spread out across all age groups, which gives her broader appeal. Sant's support is stronger among men (10.5%) than women (6.2%). His support ranges from a low of 3% among the young to a high of 20.1% among the elderly. The results showed that Sant had less of an even spread in support across the different age groups, unlike Dalli. ROBERTA Metsola lost some steam but remains the PN's strongest candi- date. And in what could turn out to be a battle royale for the PN's second MEP seat, Frank Psaila has forged ahead. This is how their voters com- pare. Roberta Metsola and Frank Psaila both enjoy stronger support among men and falter among the elderly in voter profiles that are broadly similar. Metsola enjoyed the support of 5.7% male voters and 4.4% female voters. Psaila scored 5.6% among men and 3% among women. Among those aged 18 and 35, sup- port for Psaila was slightly higher than Metsola's. The newcomer received the support of 6.2% of young voters while the incumbent received 5.8%. However, Metsola registered a far better result among those aged be- tween 36 and 50. She scored 5.3% against Psaila's dismal 1.5%. In the category of voters aged be- tween 51 and 65, Psaila was ahead of Metsola. Psaila scored 7.6% and Met- sola 6.4%. But both PN candidates crashed among those aged 65 and over. Met- sola registered the support of 1.8%, while Psaila failed to score points.
