2025 OPINION POLLING GREENLAND
Is there a poll Americans can take? I’d be interested in that too.
That 6% should talk to Puerto Rico.
I can’t believe there’s so many crazy people in Greenland
Why? Does Puerto Rico have oil or mineral wealth? 🖤🖤🖤
No! Because Greenland would be a similar state like Puerto Rico. Something like a colony of the US without any representation.
No taxation without representation or something.
6% got paid* by vance
*payment has only been promised, not yet given lolol
Wow, I didn’t think he’d be able to crack the single digits!
!dataisugly
Yeah, no shit? Life in America is terrible, why would anyone willingly join?
Literally a “developing country” except for the ultra-rich. https://theconversation.com/us-is-becoming-a-developing-country-on-global-rankings-that-measure-democracy-inequality-190486
No. “Developing” implies there’s some hope for us improving.
There’s developing, then there’s de-veloping
Developing doesn’t mean it’s being developed for its citizens
so 2 voted in favour, 3 withheld, and the remaining 28 citizens voted against?
The poll included 497 participants which is enough to represent the population of 57 000 with a statistical uncertainty between 2 and 4 percent.
I was joking but thanks for the info :)
6 and 85 have no common factors, so this implies that they must have asked some seals as well.
what makes you think these numbers are exact? 2÷33 = 6.06% and 28÷33 = 84.84%
so the seals didn’t necessarily get a vote but I hope they did
Meanwhile, 60% in favour of EU accession and those are numbers from just before the current escalation and with the fisheries policy still being a giant unsolved issue. Might actually fall under the bus because tough luck getting the parliament to reform it if there’s no need and with all those minerals Greenland isn’t as keen on fishing, any more.
Greenland used to be part of the EU
It is not for you decide Donald Trump, it is the choice of the Greenlandic people. No means no.
Trump makes it a point to brag about not knowing what “no” means
“Your country, my choice.”
- Trump, probably
I don’t think Trump or his buddies know that, no means no, nor would care even if they did.

The 6% were those maga idiots who visited.
When did ‘no’ or the law ever stop this guy?
Important note: 497 participated in the poll. Still seems statistically like a good sample and am happy about the result!

497 participated in the poll.
wow, thats almost half of the population!
I understand this is a joke and all, but this is about 1% of the population. I don’t know how easily Greenlanders have access to the internet and such and how this was distributed, but I actually think 1% is not a bad turnout here
Most Greenlanders have access to the internet. Although the percentage isn’t as high as most places in Europe or north America (I assume because of geography).
Imagine how peaceful life would be if you lived somewhere so remote that the Internet couldn’t touch you.
Until the Internet elects a demagogue in the most ridiculously over-armed country on earth and arrives in an attack helicopter
well i said ALMOST, didn’t I?!
At least ist almost one percent of the total population (~57000), from which those not eligible to vote (children, foreigners) need to be substracted.
If the polling organizer did its job correctly and removed bias from their sampling, a beautiful law in statistics has been proven, stating that small-ish samples are representative of the whole population if it follows e.g. a normal distribution. It’s called “law of large numbers”.
Is 500 really big enough to get a proper spread though? Iirc my statistics course (which i don’t all that well tbf) you need a pretty significant sample still, would think a few thousand at least
497 more than 1% of Greenland’s voting population. For larger populations the rule of thumb is generally 1000 people for a good poll, 500 for a decent one.
Fair enough, thanks.
2000 is the standard max. 500 is probably good enough for most things.
That’s 1% of their population. For comparison, if you polled Spain’s 1% of population, it would have been around 470.000 people (I’m using the 47.000.000 population from memory though)
I think this poll is a little early, atleast let the US take Greenland to McDonald’s before they can consent to being fucked.
With our new president? No consent sought…
I’m now curious what those 6% were thinking. The no is basically the default. What males those few say they want to join the US?
A general rule with polls is that you’ll never get a result below 5% on a question with 2 options. Those people mostly weren’t paying attention, didn’t understand the question, didn’t care or intentionally chose a contrarian response.
Yeah, I just want the results of the secondary poll that asks the why. It’d be interesting just to see the real answers.
As a German, I’d be more than happy to have only 6% of people voting against the interest of the country…
Everywhere has some Nazis.
Oh they’re just playing hard to get
