In the absence of regular opinion polling about party support in Namibia, the IPPR recently canvassed the opinions of its research associates concerning their predictions for the number of seats each party will obtain in the National Assembly after the November 27 and 28 elections.
The overall result was as follows:

Swapo: 54 seats(75%)
RDP: 6 seats(8%)
DTA: 4 seats(6%)
Nudo: 3 seats (4%)
CoD: 2 seats(3%)
UDF: 2 seats (3%)
APP: 1 seat(1%)

The prediction is non-scientific and based solely on the views of a number of researchers who have worked on issues relating to politics, democracy and governance in Namibia. The exercise will be repeated in October and the November to see if the level of campaigning and other political issues affect the prediction.
