It is reported that all the pre-election result predictions given to the President and the government regarding the Local Government election are false.
While the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) and the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) is said to be now receiving results quite unexpected by them, inside sources say individuals who conducted pre-poll surveys for the party have even switched off their phones.
They say those who compiled surveys for Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa stating excessively favourable results have done the same this time around by presenting similar surveys to President Sirisena. Sources say despite warning the President that he should beware of those who were close to President Mahinda Rajapaksa prior to January 8, 2015, he paid no heed to this information.
However, according to internal sources of the party, the SLFP-led UPFA is now at the risk of coming in at the third or fourth position due to these fake reports.
