Portuguese Government Coalition Leads by Nearly 7 Points over Socialist Party in Latest Polling
🇵🇹 Political Landscape in Portugal: A Closer Look 🇵🇹
G'day, Mate! A recent survey conducted by TVI and the polling company Pitagorica has shed light on the political landscape of Portugal ahead of the upcoming legislative elections on May 18. So, let's dive right in!
The main contenders in this election are the ruling coalition Alliance Democratic (AD), led by Prime Minister Luís Montenegro, and the competition is fierce. According to the poll, AD is projected to secure 34.5% of the votes, comfortably ahead of the runner-up, the Socialist Party (PS), who would achieve 27.7%. But things get interesting when we consider the far-right party Chega, which is expected to garner 15.7% of the votes!
Now, did someone mention immigration? Well, Montenegro, in a controversial move, recently stated that irregular immigrants in Portugal would be required to return to their home countries, which has sparked debates. It's essential to note that theinsula's populace comprises around 1.5 to 1.6 million immigrants, so the implications of this move could be substantial.
As we delve deeper into the poll results, the Liberal Initiative and left-wing ecological party Livre are projected to gain 6.9% and 4% of the votes, respectively. The Left Bloc and the communist Democratic Unity Coalition (CDU) are anticipated to secure 2.2% and 3.1% of the votes, respectively.
Just a curiosity, but have you heard about Jean-Marc Aveline, a French defender of migrants who advocates for the blessing of homosexual couples? 🌈🇫🇷
Going back to Portugal, if these results hold, it could lead to a government shift, as the poll suggests that AD winning 34.5% of the votes, while PS coming in second with 27.7%, leaves a somewhat uncertain future for the ruling coalition, even though they are currently in the lead.
Stay tuned for more updates as the race heats up! 💥🇵🇹❤️
