Opinions were gathered on political parties, the role of the government in improving the economy, whether corruption existed in local and national government, whether government officials were responsive to problems of the general population, and whether local government officials, the police, the courts, the overall criminal justice system, and the electoral commission could be trusted. Additionally, respondents were polled about upcoming and past elections, the fairness and legality of elections, election outcomes, and threats, bribes and violence related to campaigns and elections. Economic questions addressed the past, present, and future of the country's and the respondents' living conditions.
