🇬🇷 Greek politics and elections

Papandreou always used to end his rallies with Carmina Burana o Fortuna to give a Hollywood Epicness to his speeches.

I read it in the Greek Elects twitter page. Why were pollsters afraid of being bullied by Syriza if they showed the real voting intentions rather than the ones they presented that overestimated the party?

Because that's how SYRIZA and its army of online trolls operate. They harass and bully anyone (journalists, pollsters, academics, political rivals, etc.) who says anything they dislike. It's no wonder why they still feel such affinity for right-wing parties, even Golden Dawn.

SYRIZA also governed in a coalition with the right-wing populist ANEL Party. Twice, after both elections in 2015.

And Tsipras still praises Kammenos even to this day despite the fact that the latter has come out as a staunch supporter of Russia and Putin and still continues to spout conspiracy theories about the Jews being responsible for the war in Ukraine.

As i understand, it would be essentially correct to say "the army" instead of ANEL.
