Zelenskiy would still secure a victory — though not by the landslide that brought him into the presidency in 2019​. Overall, just 22.5% of respondents said they would vote for the current president. Pro-Russian politician Yuriy Boyko came in second place with 14.3%, followed by Poroshenko with 11.4%, and Tymoshenko with 9%.
The ruling party, Servant of the People, remains in the lead with 18.4% support overall​, followed by Opposition Platform — For Life (14.8%), European Solidarity (12.3%), and Batkivshchyna (9.3%).
Public support is collapsing for The People’s Servant party that was launched by Ukrainian President Zelenskiy, ​according to the latest poll released on January 26. About 11.2% of decided voters said they would vote for Zelenskiy’s party, which gained election to parliament in July 2019 with an overwhelming 43% result. That’s compared to 20.7% for the Putin-aligned Opposition Platform For Life party, 15.3% for the pro-NATO European Solidarity party, 12.6% for the anti-IMF Fatherland party. Also qualifying for parliament are the pro-NATO Strength and Honor party (8.3%), the pro-NATO Voice party (5.6%) and the pro-infrastructure Groysman’s Ukrainian Strategy party (5.3%).
Zelenskiy’s celebrity immunity is wearing off as well, according to the poll. He would gain 19.8% of ballots from decided voters, compared to 15.7% for the pro-NATO Petro Poroshenko, 11.8% for the anti-IMF Yulia Tymoshenko, 11.0% for the pro-Putin Yuriy Boyko, 8.9% for the pro-NATO Ihor Smeshko, 7.5% for the pro-Putin Viktor Medvedchuk and 5.8% for the infrastructure organizer Volodymyr Groysman. The poll was conducted among 1,005 respondents on January 22 by the Western-sponsored Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS).
