- New Democracy: 17-20%
- Pasok: 14-17%
- In a stunner, Syrizia, or the coalition of the radical left - a vehement anti-Bailout party - gets more votes than the ruling PASOK party: 15.5%-18.5%
- Independent Greeks: 10-12%
- Finally, and not surprisingly in the aftermath of the French results, the ultra right Golden Dawn gets 6-8%of the vote and will make it into Parliament
Tallied across, up to 60% of the new parliament will be anti-bailout (at least according to exit polls), and hence "Domino toppling." Good luck with that pro-bailout coalition government. Needless to say these results are very ugly and make any prospect of a pro-bailout coalition cabinet virtually impossible. Suddenly the fate of the European experiment is in the hands of the ultra right and the far left - yup, Neo-Nazis will determine the future of Europe. How quaint... again - congratulations Europe..."
