New Democracy Holds 16-Point Poll Lead as New Party Entrants Fail to Cut Through

07:49 3/4/2026 - Πηγή: iEfimerida

Greece's ruling New Democracy party maintained a commanding 16.5 percentage point lead over its nearest rival in a new Pulse survey for SKAI television, with voting intentions largely unchanged as three potential new political parties generated

only modest public enthusiasm.

In voting intention, New Democracy held steady at 25.5%, exactly matching last month's figure, while PASOK gained one point to reach 12%. Greek Solution followed at 7.5%, Plefsi Eleftherias at 7%, the Communist Party KKE at 7% and SYRIZA at 4%.

The undecided grey zone stood at 17%.
In vote share projections, which account for the undecided, New Democracy surpassed 30%, reaching 31%. PASOK projected at 14.5%, Greek Solution and Plefsi at 9% and 8.5% respectively, KKE at 8.5%, SYRIZA at 5% and Voice of Reason at 3%.

The poll was conducted one day after Maria Karystianou, the Tempe train disaster victim's mother, formally announced the launch of her political movement. Despite the timing, sentiment toward her party remained flat at 13% — unchanged from the previous month — while 53% viewed it with indifference or negativity.

Support interest for a party led by former prime minister Alexis Tsipras edged up one point to 13%, though those viewing it with active interest fell to 9% from 10%, with 61% indifferent or negative.

A potential new party from former prime minister Antonis Samaras attracted positive or interested responses from 13% of respondents.
On economic policy, 46% viewed the government's measures to combat the cost-of-living pressures stemming from the Middle East conflict positively, though 64% of New Democracy's own voters said the measures were broadly right but insufficient.

Greeks cited economic hardship and the risk of military entanglement as their two primary concerns over regional instability.
