The left parties would have to beat ND by 15.4% to win more seats than ND. That's looking like it might actually be possible.

in greece, right and left colors are based on byzantium traditions of chariot racing

the favorite team of the people is the green team, as the elite prefere the blue team.


thus, the actual "socialist" party, PASOK is identified with green, and so is the popular football club of athens Panathinaïkos

Interesting. I had been wondering what the significance of green was. I knew about the Blue and Green chariot teams in Rome and Byzantium, but I hadn't connected the two.

They'll be held when Angela Merkel sees a chance of victory for her goons. Not before.

They haven't been officially called yet.

I've read somewhere that PASOK is rising in the polls.

Maybe they win this thing (if the election is called in a few months) ... Tongue

All the way up to 15%. ND are down to 22%. This is going to be a different election.

The major polling development of the last month has been the rise of yet another new party, ANEL, a populist/anti-diktat ND splinter.

The coalition would gain a majority if the elections are held now. Maybe this will not be the case in 6 months.

Results based on recent polling:



Thanks to the 19 Nazi seats, no possible grouping has a majority.

It appears as if the even-scarier XA has taken LAOS' support.

I'm referring to an ND majority. I'm also being mildly caustic. Tongue

Not really, seeing as they are drawing votes from ND. Grin

As much as I despise ND, I tend to think the populist right is always a bad thing. And especially in Greece's context.

Is it even going to be possible for anyone to form a government with the current numbers?

It's probably going to be a very "colorful" combination of people no matter who wins the most seats.

A PASOK-ND coalition may be possible, although it won't exactly have a comfortable majority. If the two parties don't have a majority, they may get it if they let the Nazis in. It seems like they might be underpolling (one would certainly expect LAOS to be doing better, although participating in the government wasn't good for them from an electoral standpoint); does anyone know whether the Greek far-right generally underpolls?

I'm under the impression that the far-right underpolls everywhere.

Another posibility to Troika's gang victory maybe Dora Bakoyannis' fan club running under PASOK umbrella. Although that would cause problems with Samaras.
