SYRIZA’s ridiculous statements the last week hurt them a lot, they got annihilated.
Rise for PASOK, KKE, surprise from the left wing nationalist party of Konstantopoulou.
The threshold for parliament is 3%.
Now I know this is more than that, but as someone living in Turkey I have to ask; which parties would be more likely to take a friendlier stance with Turkey in a potential opposition win here next week?
Edit, solved, it’s 3%.
Form left to right
NΔ – Center right (current government)
ΣΥΡΙΖΑ – Left
ΠΑΣΟΚ – Centrer left, Socialist
KKE – Communist party
EΛΛΗΝΚΚΗ ΛΥΣΗ – Far right, nationalists
ΜΕΡΑ25 – Left (Varoufakis)
ΠΛΕΥΣΗ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΙΑΣ – Left (? Not sure if it’s actually left)
Shocking to see a Stalinist party get the support of even 6% of a country. But not surprising I suppose given the rise of tankies across Europe.
RIP
Turkey deserves Erdogan, Greece deserves Mitsotakis. Both countries deserve their governments. At least greeks have the option of leaving their shithole of a country for other EU countries.
ND is the worst government I can remember, had scandals every month, these results would be hopeless.
Who stands for what?
Is anyone surprised? Greece under Mitsotakis is no longer the joke it was the past decade.
Get ready to hear the one-sided non-nuanced perspective of an overwhelming leftist Greek-redditor circlejerkey userbase
What does this mean for coalition building in Greece?
Την γαμησανε. We are fucked.
Αναμενόμενα αποτελέσματα tbh
Man I can almost taste the r/greece tears.It is glorious.
I love when Europeans believe that we arent fucked because Mitsotakis is going to be president, like they live in Greece, ffs.
In a few words, the Greek people have voted for another four years of the most corrupt government in the history of the country. A party more than 400 million euros in debt. A party that has corrupted everyone that could be corrupted, including judges, media and police.
A party that has ruined the Public healthcare system and the public education system.
A party that works exclusively for oligarchs, a freaking cleptocracy involved in so many scandals that we have lost count.
Really embarrassing and disappointing situation…
So what is the likely coalition outcome, New Democracy+PASOK? Or could all the left parties conceivably work together?
How does this compare to last election? Has the political scene shifted significantly?
I just realized I know absolutely nothing about Greek politics.
Like the meme goes: I’m happy for you, or I’m sorry that happened
The difference is even larger.
What’s the top number and what’s the bottom number?
What’s the top and what’s the bottom number?
I know the issues with ND but they definitely seem like the best option. Pro-EU, seem– dare I say– somewhat sensible, helped the economy grow at least. Definitely better than SYRIZA insanity.
I love pizza
What are the two numbers? Poll and actual? Margin of error?
Are the good guys winning?
I am afraid to go on /r/Greece, reality turns out a lot different than many there expected…
