According to the polls, the left-wing opposition party Syriza, with former Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras (2015-2019) as the top candidate, is likely to be the second strongest force. In recent polls, Mitsotakis’ party received more than 40 percent of the vote, Syriza about 20 percent.
The electoral law provides for an automatic bonus of at least 20 seats for the party with the most votes in the 300-seat parliament. If New Democracy gets around 40 percent, it could once again rule alone with a comfortable majority in parliament.
A total of 32 parties are participating in the race. Polling stations close at 7:00 PM local time (6:00 PM CEST). Forecasts based on post-election polls are expected immediately afterwards. Meaningful results based on counted votes can be expected around 8pm (7pm CEST). (sda/dpa)
