The polls have Danilo Medina and Joaquín Balaguer playing ping-pong for the important second position of the 16 May election. Hoy newspaper political column, "Qué se dice" points out that the surveys carried out by European companies all show PLD candidate Danilo Medina leading PRSC candidate Joaquín Balaguer in electoral preferences. On the contrary, US companies show Balaguer coming in the important second place. The European companies are Sigma Dos-Spain (Listín Diario newspaper), Demoscopia-Spain (Ahora magazine). The US companies are Hamilton Beattie & Staff (Hoy newspaper), Gallup (Rumbo magazine), and Penn, Schoen & Berland (El Siglo newspaper). Coincidence in the methods used by the Europeans and the US companies? Which survey will come closest to reality?
