If Greece went to national elections on Sunday, 24.7% would vote for incumbent political party New Democracy, according to a new Greek public opinion poll by Interview for the newspaper Political. Around 12.1% of voters would cast their ballot for PASOK, 8.2% for Greek Solution, 7.3% for Plefsi Eleftherias, and 7% for Greece’s communist party (KKE).

Considering overall results, as estimated by Interview, the poll shows that New Democracy remains in the lead, up 2-points to 30% compared to the last survey, while PASOK is back in second place at 14.1%, followed by Greek Solution at 9.7% and Plefsi Eleftherias falling to fourth at 8.9%.

The results show a relative stabilization and even marginal improvement of New Democracy in the polls, while the party led by Zoi Konstantopoulou called Plefsi Eleftherias, is gradually sinking. Plefsi Eleftherias skyrocketed in domestic opinion polls amid country-wide Tempi protests a few months ago. Public opinion reacted against what has been perceived as cover-ups and moved away from the political establishment. This recent poll shows this sentiment subsiding.

When asked which political leader voters “trust” the most, current PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis leads as the top choice at 29.7%, followed by “None” at 27.3%, then Zoi Konstantopoulou at 9.4%. PASOK leader Nikos Androulakis has a mere 7.7%, despite his party holding second place in the polls.

Voters also chimed-in on what they consider to be the biggest “problems” in Greece right now. Inflation is the clear front-runner, followed by energy prices, salaries, and demographics.

As New Democracy struggles to shake-off the wear and tear of 6-years of leadership through a pandemic, emergence from the country’s economic crisis, and countless other “crisis”, it has launched a series of support measures to boost public opinion. However, the GPO poll reveals the measures are missing the mark. Polls show that an overwhelming 59% say the measures are in the wrong direction, just 36% view them positively, and a whopping 77% say they have not benefited from government measures.
