Weekly Report - 23 February 2017 (WR-17-07)

On 15 February, the CNT announced the results of a poll that was conducted among 2,002 voters in 25 states. Overall the evaluations of Temer’s government and his performance as president declined from what they were in October. For what it is worth, they remain slightly higher than they were for Dilma Rousseff this time last year.
