Rudolph Marmara' For the Registrar of Civil Courts and Tribunals How we mapped European elections 2014: surveys vindicated MT POLLS (%) Actual % PL 53 55 PN 43 40 AD 3.7 2.4 Others 1 2.4 MaltaToday surveys correctly identified Alfred Sant (pictured) as the front runner in MEP elections held in June. MaltaToday also identi- fied Miriam Dalli and Marlene Mizzi as the two other Labour MEPs to be elected and Roberta Metsola as the PN's front runner followed by David Casa. MaltaToday surveys also indi- cated a tight race for the PN's third seat. An extrapolation of survey re- sults conducted during the previous month showed the PL heading for an absolute majority of between 51% and 55%. Surveys showed that the scale of Labour's victory depended on a strategic category of voters who right up to the last survey preferred Joseph Muscat to Simon Busuttil but refused to say how they would vote. Surveys showed that the size of the gap between the two parties de- pended on the level of abstention in both camps. One major factor which made the gap between the two par- ties harder to predict was the large number of respondents who trusted Muscat more than Busuttil but re- mained unsure who to vote for in the MEP elections. This category represented 6% of respondents in the last MaltaToday survey before the election. MaltaTo- day surveys showed the PL winning with 55% if this category turned oput to vote for Labour. The re- sult indicates that Labour was more successful in getting its voters out on polling day than the PN. Maltese favour drug decriminalisation A survey published on 18 December showed nine out of every 10 re- spondents agreeing with the proposal made by the gov- ernment under which drug users carrying small amounts of drugs for personal use will not face proceed- ings in court. Moreover slightly more than half agree with the proposed decriminali- sation of cannabis use. The MaltaToday survey reveals a generational change in attitudes to- wards cannabis. While 70% of under-35-year-olds agree with the proposal to exempt cannabis smokers from court pro- ceedings, a majority of over-35-year- olds are opposed to this aspect of the reform. The survey also shows that more than one in every three, within the 16- to 34-years-old bracket knows someone who makes use of canna- bis. Although public opinion remains split on the proposed decriminalisa- tion of cannabis use, only 14% of re- spondents think that marijuana is as dangerous as hard drugs like cocaine and heroin. But while respondents are more liberal with regard to drug use, the vast majority still agree with the imprisonment of addicts found guilty of trafficking. Majority support Spring hunting referendum % of respondents who intend voting for a ban on spring hunting June 2013 60 July 2014 44 September 2014 50 October 2014 49 Voting intentions on the Spring hunting referendum showed a mas- sive dip in support for the hunting ban following the MEP elections, from 60% in July 2013 to just 44%. But support climbed back to 50% in surveys conducted in September and October. A breakdown by age shows that support for the yes camp declines with age from 62% among under 34 year olds to 43% among over-55 year olds. A breakdown by sex reveals that females are more inclined to vote for a ban. A breakdown by education shows support for the yes camp highest among the univer- sity educated (70%) and lowest among those Many of us agree with decriminalising first time drug offences, a majority will vote 'yes' in referendum to abolish spring hunting, we think traffic was this year's top concern and the euro emerges as one of the markers of Maltese Mediterranean identity.
