According to the survey, which was conducted in person with 2,460 people in 26 cities, 62.1 percent of the respondents think that President and Justice and Development Party (AKP) Chair Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is managing the economy badly. While 21.1 percent have opted for "He is not managing well", 16.8 percent have found his management "neither good nor bad."
The respondents were also asked, "Will the economy recover if the government changes?" 48.1 percent have said, "It will recover."
While 32.1 percent of the respondents have said, "The economy will be worse", 16.3 percent are of the opinion that "there will be no change in the economy" and 3.5 percent have said, "I don't know."

The highest rate here (63.4 percent) is that of Ali Babacan, the Chair of the DEVA Party who served as the State Minister for Economy in the 58th and 59th AKP governments. Future Party Chair Ahmet Davutoğlu, also a former AKP politician, has received 55.8 percent, a rate higher than Erdoğan.
