Portugal 2009

[Hash]

I have no clue which party I support in Portugal. Obviously not the Commies, Trots, and CDS/PP. And not the PSD nor PS.

Maybe whatever that monarchy party is called.

@Hashemite:

The monarchy Party, called PPM is maybe the right for you. Today it's a centrist green party

Ah, that's the one. It's a great party.

I once had Portugal described to me as the country with the most mis-named political parties in Europe....

Probably due to the PSD.

Why is Évora so left-wing? The Commies took second place (PS first, PSD third, BE a close fourth, hardline Commies 2%), but it sounds like a normal city.

It's the Alentejo. Commie country.

That's not a "why" explanation.

It is. Since you insist, it's anti-clerical country. The land of large landowners, agricultural workers and a much more collectivist spirit than the north. It's like Allier, Cher or Indre in France.

The north is much more individualist, Catholic-clerical and the Church is important there. Like Galicia. Except for Porto, which is an industrial centre and an old base of republicanism.
