Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claimed yesterday that Barcelona presidential candidate Agustí Benedito had ordered a university poll regarding the upcoming presidential elections that was carried out on Sunday in the surroundings of the Camp Nou.Of the 1.200 people polled, 54% reportedly didn't yet make their choice about who they will choose for on 13 June.
