Metron population survey: ND government lost 5 points in 1 month


Metron’s analysis documented the loss of Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ New Democracy in the poll featured in Mega’s main broadcast, and also loudly declared the losses the party suffered due to the process of apportioning responsibility for the Tempi tragedy.

This poll is a serious blow to the government and to Mitsotakis personally, as he demonstrates for the first time a significant decline in support government, refuting Mitsotakis’s narrative of his complete hegemony in power.

Also for the first time, “Nobody” becomes the most popular prime minister. The political climate in the country is still far from pre-election – according to a survey, interest in the European elections remains at a relatively low level just 80 days before the vote, and this is not what New Democracy wants to see, as many believe that the ruling party will lose in the elections itself there will be even more parties.

According to the survey results, New Democracy lost 5.1 points in the vote estimate over the month.

At the same time, when counting votes, the New Democracy (ND) party gains 31.4% (previous February measurement – 36.5%).

However, New Democracy maintains its lead over Syriza, which is regaining its position with 15.1% (up from 13.3% in the February poll). In voting intentions, SYRIZA gains 11.8% (from 10.4% in the February poll).
