24% ‘satisfied’ with country’s path Monday, August 8, 2016 Pessimism in new poll but Macri still popularMost citizens are pessimistic about the country’s economic situation, but they are continuing to stand by Let’s Change (Cambiemos) leader President Mauricio Macri, a new poll by the San Andrés University (UdeSA) has found. In May, 48 percent of the country approved of Macri, while 45 percent disapproved. In terms of education, those answering poll questions who had the least amount of schooling also were more likely to disapprove of Macri’s administration. However, going into June, this widened to a 14 point gap between those who approve and don’t approve. The survey paints a complex picture of citizens split by support for the government and disappointment at the economic situation.
