Let me put it this way: The outcome was predictable; like somebody once said "our two biggest parties are like Chlorine Kleenex: autin kserete, autin empisteueste!"
I don't know! You know before the elections everybody complains about the situation but when the time comes everybody votes for the same people. Why does that happen?
The only thing I'm satisfied with is the percentage the smaller parties got.


ele
-that ND got aftodinamia so there we won't go to elections again
-that 5 parties got in the vouli and many voices are heard...

I was actually sad about Marietta, I liked her...

Greek elections seem a bit similar to the ones in Turkey. Everybody criticized the gov. but nobody put forward an alternative (good) program. Moreover, people voted for the one that gave them a lot of aid as money and or food etc. AKP did that in Turkey for 5 years. They visited homes of poor people (especially during the holy month) and distributed money and food). Karamanlis gave €3000 to the victims of the fire disasters.
So I guess that's another similarity between the neighbors. Did anyone expect Karamanlis to face a defeat? Please explain as I am not very knowledeable in Greek internal politics.
By the way what's that about history books and that lady? Did she lose because she made the books more friendly or because the books were not hostile enough against Turks? I am rather confused about it. I heard there was a great debate on the issue, but I don't know which position she had.

I take great satisfaction in the fact that I didnt waste my precious day off from work to vote for any of those clowns.

i'm satisfied with the elections!!☺
and i'm glad that i didn't have to vote again!


Judas Rabbi
They voted on who they wanted.
If the don't like it, they can vote again.


Vaggos.Gr
I like that are 5 parties in the parliament now.
I am not a fan of Karatzaferis but it's better to hear many and different opinions.
I am also happy that "Aristera" is more power full with biggest presence than in the past.


fast.ride
the result does satisfy me, but lets just hope that Karamanlis in his next 4years in office, will work hard to make Greece an easier country to live in..


zusje17
Well to tell you the truth,the only way the result would satisfy me is if the abstinence p[percentage was above 50% and so the elections would be canceled.Either way,30% isn't a small percentage,maybe it will give them something to think about...other than that...nothing positive to mention...


wakeup!
that nd got only 152 edres
the situation will be really fragile

Maybe now there is parliamentary representation of Laos in Greece, there will be more examination of the seriously racist policies it endorses, and maybe these issues will be properly examined across Greece in all its various parties. However, it also means the extreme right now has a powerbase and is also given the credibilty of political representation. Maybe that is a greater cause for concern. I await the comments and congratulations of the various interested parties...

I totally agree with Lilaki. Before the elections everybody is complaining about the situation, but when the time comes people is scared to vote for the smaller parties. This way the situation will never change. That's why it's right to say that people gets what he deserves...

the only bright spot that i can see in this black tunnel is that
MARRIETA is OUT

other than that in NO WAY

Despite the abysmal state of Greek politics, I do see a few positives from the recent election as well as a worrisome negative. The positives first:

1. It is a wonderful surprise indeed that both major parties lost plenty of seats in the parliament which went to small parties some of which were not represented in the parliament before. It is just possible that they will act as watchdogs not in a position (unfortunately) to advert misdeeds by the government but to scream loudly when such plans are hatched and brought to the parliament for approval.

2. It is a positive of sorts that the winner got a bare-bone majority so as to avert the debacle of a second election in the resulting disruption and expense. Since the choice was between one of two incompetents, it is just as good that the "election process" is over.

3. It is hard-warming really that a great number of voters voted for a party from which they can expect no 'rousfeti' whatsoever for the foreseeable future. Could it possible that there is hope for the Greeks after all?

Here is the negative:

1. It is at least a possibility that, seeing the handwriting on the wall, ie. diminished prospects of re-election, the present government 'tha faei' as much as possible within this term since the 'koutala' may be taken away from their hands sooner than expected.
