New Democracy leads in Greek polls amid high social discontent
A new Metron Analysis poll reveals New Democracy (ND) maintains its lead in Greece, with 30.2% in vote estimation and 25.1% in voting intention. However, the poll highlights significant social discontent, as 66% of respondents believe the country is moving in the wrong direction and 66% evaluate the government's performance negatively. The primary concerns cited by citizens are the cost of living (52%) and the economy (34%).
In terms of political competition, the Greek Left Sympolity (ELAS) follows in second place with 15.8% in vote estimation and 13.1% in intention, showing a decline from previous measurements. PASOK is gaining ground, rising to 12.6% in vote estimation and 10.5% in intention. Regarding leadership, Kyriakos Mitsotakis remains the most suitable prime minister candidate at 30%, while Alexis Tsipras holds 13%.
Political leaders have also engaged in sharp rhetoric. PASOK leader Nikos Androulakis criticized the government's approach as “arrogant,” while PASOK spokesperson Kostas Tsoukalas and Deputy Foreign Minister Haris Theocharis exchanged heated comments regarding the representation of different social classes in the political landscape.
