PASOK

This amendment comes as part of PASOK’s broader strategy to present itself as a people-focused yet pragmatic political alternative to New Democracy.

The Communist Party (KKE) is in fourth place while the up-until-recently main opposition SYRIZA party falls to fifth place, with 7.1%

Since the elections, almost two dozen members of the Greek parliament have left or been removed from the parties they were elected with.

Ruling New Democracy party fields a 10-percentage point lead over PASOK, although former continues to gradually slide in terms of voters' approval

“It is a sign of your desperation to replace SYRIZA, even imitating their mistakes, before they even disperse,” Mitsotakis said

Recent polls show a growing discontent among Greece’s electorate, and shifting party preferences.

In terms of voting intentions, New Democracy leads with 27.6%, followed by PASOK at 16.5%, with the main opposition party SYRIZA coming in third at 8.8%.

In an extrapolation of the valid responses, center-right ND is given 28.1%, while 18.2% of respondents picked PASOK

Center-right ND is preferred by 25% of respondents, without an extrapolation of the results, with now second-place PASOK pooling 15.3%

Former party presidential candidates are included in this new inner circle, as part of PASOK's ongoing push to maintain and project unity. 

New Democracy leads with 26.5% in voting intention, maintaining a 12.2-point lead over PASOK, which is in second place with an increase to 14.3% from 11.8%

Greek MPs from across the political spectrum expressed their condolences for the loss

Though Androulakis has not officially commented on his personnel decisions, there are many rumors of a shake up in central positions in the parliamentary group.

A total of 201,654 voters participated in the second round of elections, reflecting a notable decrease from last Sunday’s turnout of over 300,000 party members and supporters

Voters can cast their ballots until 7 pm tonight while preliminary results are expected by around 9 pm

Regardless of who is elected to the helm of PASOK on Sunday, October 13, its next leader will need to close the significant gap with New Democracy to position the party as the "next government."

Recent polls firmly place Greece’s Social Democratic party in main opposition second place

Pavlos Geroulanos is in first place in the Attica region, with 76.32% of the votes counted (143 out of 228 polling stations).

Over 300,000 PASOK-KINAL members are estimated to have cast their ballots in the centrist party’s first-round elections on Sunday

In extrapolating the vote, ruling ND reaches 29.2%, higher than the actual figure it received in last June’s European Parliament election, 28.3%. PASOK at 17.2%
