The trend that had appeared in the previous polls, at the end of September and which showed that the wear of ND from the summer adventures had been stopped, with SYRIZA not being able to strengthen its forces, is confirmed by two new polls, which were published yesterday. Both the company Pulse (for SKAI) and the GPO (for powergame.gr), record even a slight increase of the difference between ND and SYRIZA, while the common finding is that the Movement for Change (KINAL) increases its forces, as in the first survey it gains 1.5% and in the second 1%, always in relation to the immediately preceding ones of the same companies.
Obviously, the emotional atmosphere that prevailed from the loss of Fofi Gennimata, but also the new interest that gave to the race of succession the participation of George Papandreou have stimulated the reflexes of the followers of the party. It should be noted, that for the first time the percentage of KINAL, on the valid ones (8.5%), is higher than the that of the 2019 elections (8.1%). It remains to be seen whether this trend will be solidify until the December by-elections and will remain as a legacy for the start of the new leadership.
As for the main political battle, New Democracy (ND), without showing any upward trend, comfortably maintains the double-digit lead of 11 points in both measurements, thanks to the small fall of SYRIZA. While Kyriakos Mitsotakis still has a great distance (and expands it) from Alexis Tsipras in the comparison of the two leaders in the suitability for the Prime Minister. The percentages are now at 41% -25% (difference of 16 points), when in the previous one it was 40% -25% (difference of 14 points).
SYRIZA’s inability to exceed the limit of 24-25 percentage points in the electorate is almost a permanent phenomenon.
