In early November, 64% of participants believed the same and 62% in October. Only 12% of the participants believe that SYRIZA would win the next elections.
Meanwhile, New Democracy chief Kyriakos Mitsotakis is viewed as more suitable for prime minister than Alexis Tsipras, with 36% versus 19.5% (37% and 20.5% in the previous month).
