New Poll Places Golden Dawn In Second Place- Passes SYRIZA!

HellasFrappe warned everyone concerned that this would happen, and thankfully some people are beginning to listen (example anti racism bill). By ignoring the over one million people who support the Golden Dawn party, by provoking national sentiment on issues that are very sensitive to Greek citizens (such as those noted in the anti racism bill), by not addressing the real problems of society (Turkish provocations in Aegean, Thrace, Cham issue, FYROM issue, etc.), the only thing that the members of Parliament and the Greek media has done is to escalate the Golden Dawn's popularity with the people.

In a new poll published by Makis Triantafylopoulos' zougla.gr new site, the Golden Dawn party moved into second place, passing the US-endorsed SYRIZA party. The conservative New Democracy apparently maintains a comfortable lead over all parties, or recorded 21,1%.

The Golden Dawn party received 14,5% while SYRIZA trailed in third place at 14%.

SYRIZA is suffering many losses to the newly established party of Alekos Alavanos, as well as to other smaller parties, (or has already lost about 8,4%).

The Independent Greek party scored 5.8%, followed by PASOK with a historical low of 4.2%, the Greek Communist party (KKE) with 4%, and DIMAR with 3.1%.

(Editor's Note - Golden Dawn is not popular because there are people in Greece that are racist or against foreigners, Golden Dawn is popular because it respects the Greek Constitution, the Greek Armed Forces, Greek history and especially our Greek national issues. The conservatives always traditionally supported these ideals... They lost their way at some point because the media and the Leftist parties in Greece have a profound influence on the political developments of the country, and especially the people and we believe that they were persuaded to follow a different path that did not reflect what the conservatives really stand for. We are nonetheless very pleased that they have realized that the new trend, which tilts to the right, will only benefit them. Time to get back to some of their grass roots on these issues. Who knows, it could be a new era for Greece!)
