It said respondents to a survey by pollster IBRiS for private broadcaster Radio ZET were asked the question: "Will you try to persuade your friends/family to vote for specific political groups in the upcoming parliamentary elections?"
Among the responses, 14.6 percent answered with a definitive "yes," while 11.4 percent replied with a "rather yes," according to the PAP news agency.
Meanwhile, 27.6 percent chose "rather not," and 44.7 percent responded with a "definitely not."
Approximately 1.7 percent did not know.
Radio ZET further said that among supporters of the ruling coalition, 17 percent were keen to recommend a specific choice ("definitely yes"), while 10 percent leaned towards such an option ("rather yes").
In contrast, 23 percent have no intention of trying to persuade friends or family members to support any specific group, and 49 percent fall under the "rather not" category.
Among supporters of the opposition, 20 percent are eager to encourage others to back a specific group ("definitely yes"), while 17 percent are inclined in that direction ("rather yes").
However, 39 percent have no plans to do so ("definitely not"), and 24 percent fall into the "rather not" category.
The IBRiS survey was conducted on October 6 and 7 on a nationwide representative sample of 1,000 individuals.
Poles will head to the ballot box to vote in parliamentary elections on Sunday. They will elect 460 MPs and 100 senators for a four-year term.
Seeking a third term in power, the governing conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party appears to be running ahead of an opposition divided into separate blocs.
