The Opinion Poll was conducted 16-19 January among 1000 people in each electoral area.
According to the poll, the main drawback for Nea Dimokratia is that the voters do not understand the message sent by the party, while for SYRIZA, the message received by the voters is “change”, Star.gr notes.
PS huh? ND’s fear-mongering strategy failed?
