PASOK is sinking quicker than a rambling man in a sea of quicksand. Two secret polls that were apparently commissioned by PASOK show that the socialists are not making any headway with voters and if national elections were held tomorrow they would barely gather 3% of the vote ( and only 2% in the 18-30 age group).
A report on defencent claims that at this rate the socialists would only be able to gain 10-12 seats in Parliament, but over time, or until the next elections are held, PASOK's image will wear and tear even more and it is very doubtful that they will even reach the required 3%. In fact the report noted that this percentage would not surpass the 2.5 mark.
So where are all of PASOK's supporters going? The answer is obvious, the majority is moving over to SYRIZA which is leading the governing New Democracy party by a comfortable 2-4 percentage points.
At PASOK party headquarters workers remain unpaid, even though PASOK has accumulated hundreds of millions in state grants.
In the state of Achaia, which is traditionally GREEN, or George Papandreou's home base, PASOK is also dropping in popularity and believe it or not Golden Dawn is rising!
Specifically, an opinion poll conducted by the DATA RC company shows a gap between the two major political parties at 10.7 percentage points - SYRIZA is rising rapidly in this state, the popularity of the New Democracy is dropping. SYRIZA apparently gains 34.1 %, while New Democracy has dropped to 23.4% and the Golden Dawn party is following in third at 10.1%!
