The latest assessment of Sunday’s election results, as of 8:10 p.m. local time, give incumbent New Democracy (ND) party 157 seats in Greece’s 300-deputy Parliament.
The assessment emanates from the Singular Logic firm, the main IT provider for the interior ministry, which organizes and manages national elections in the country.
A total of eight parties are forecast to enter Parliament, with center-right ND first-past-the-post and in a position to form a more-or-less comfortable majority government, and with the left-leaning and anti-establishment Plevsi Eleftherias party (Course for Freedom), established by former Parliament president Zoe Konstantopoulou, the eighth and last to exceed the 3-percent threshold for entering the legislature and fielding MPs.
Yanis Varoufakis’ radical left Mera25 party appears as receiving less than 3 percent of the general vote and failing to enter Parliament.
Specifically:
ND 40.5 percent and 157 seats.
SYRIZA 17.5 percent and 48 seats.
PASOK 12.3 percent and 33 seats.
Communist Party (KKE) 7.6 percent and 20 seats.
Spartiates (Spartans) 4.7 percent and 12 seats.
Elliniki Lysi (Hellenic Solution) 4.6 percent and 12 seats.
Niki 3.6 percent and 10 seats.
Plevsi Eleftherios 3.1 percent and 8 seats.
