Greeks vote in local elections

Over 2 million citizens have cast their ballots

Greek voters are going to the ballots to elect their local representatives. So far more than two million citizens have cast their ballots.

Voters will choose representatives to local authorities in 13 regions and over 300 municipalities on Sunday.

And as with much of Europe, recent polls suggest that Greeks are also very concerned about the high cost of living.

It will be a political test both for the recently elected government of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and the main opposition and far-left Syriza party, which has a new president, Stefanos Kasselakis.

But experts are not predicting any major political upsets.
