Parliamentary elections are scheduled to be held before 25 July 2027. All 300 seats in the Hellenic Parliament will be contested.

Background

In the June 2023 parliamentary election, Kyriakos Mitsotakis was elected to the office of Prime Minister of Greece once again, replacing caretaker Prime Minister Ioannis Sarmas.[1] His party, New Democracy, obtained an absolute majority in Parliament with 158 MPs. Coming second and representing the official parliamentary opposition was Syriza, which had its seats nearly halved from the 2019 Greek parliamentary election, from 86 down to 47 in June 2023. Minor parties Spartans, Victory (Niki), and Course of Freedom entered Parliament for the first time, while previously elected parties (PASOK – KINAL, KKE, and Greek Solution) increased their seats and voting percentages compared to 2019.[2]

Syriza leadership elections and splits

On election night, Alexis Tsipras announced that he would propose leadership elections within Syriza,[3] later announcing his full resignation and withdrawal from any potential leadership race four days later.[4] Syriza's leadership race went into a second round between Effie Achtsioglou and party outsider Stefanos Kasselakis.[5] Kasselakis went on to defeat Achtsioglou on a 12-point margin and was elected President of Syriza.[6]

With his election and his rhetoric of moving Syriza towards the political centre, Kasselakis caused internal party turmoil,[7][8] leading to the first major split from Syriza since the last one in 2015 (Popular Unity) and the creation of New Left two months into his leadership.[9][10] In February 2024, Syriza's 4th Congress was held, with Kasselakis announcing party-wide elections after internal pressure,[11] only to then back down (as the 2024 European Parliament election was upcoming) by the end of the Congress after an agreement brokered by party officials,[12]

After Syriza's mediocre performance at the European Parliament election,[13] as well as rapid and unpopular internal changes to the party,[14][15][16] Kasselakis was ousted from the presidency by a vote of no-confidence in the Central Committee on 7 September and fresh elections were called.[17] He was later barred from running by the Central Committee,[18] and left the party during its extraordinary Congress, later founding his own movement, the Movement for Democracy.[19] On 24 November, Sokratis Famellos was ultimately elected as president.[20]

2023 local elections

On 8 October 2023, the first round of local (municipal and regional) elections was held, followed by the second round a week later, on 15 October. New Democracy lost 5 out of the 12 regions it had been elected in 2019, as well as the two largest municipalities, Athens and Thessaloniki.[21] In Athens, the ecologist PASOK-backed Haris Doukas was elected mayor on the second round, defeating incumbent New Democracy-backed Kostas Bakoyiannis,[22] after gaining the backing of Kostas Zachariadis, the third-placed candidate backed by Syriza.[23] In Thessaloniki, PASOK-backed Stelios Angeloudis defeated New Democracy-backed Konstantinos Zervas on a landslide of 34 points.[24]

2024 European Parliament election

In June 2024, European Parliament elections took place. In Greece, New Democracy topped the poll but at a much lower percentage than the June 2023 parliamentary election, with 28% of the votes and electing 7 members of the European Parliament (MEPs).[25] Although opinion polls just two months prior showed PASOK – KINAL coming in second place, Syriza recovered into the second spot but with 2 fewer MEPs for a total of 4, while PASOK – KINAL remained in third place but elected one more MEP for a total of 3. Greek Solution and KKE came close in percentages but ultimately Greek Solution reached the fourth spot and KKE the fifth, with both electing 2 MEPs with 9% of the vote. Niki and Course of Freedom each elected an MEP, and Voice of Reason crossed the 3% electoral threshold for the first time, electing its leader Afroditi Latinopoulou as an MEP.[26]

PASOK—KINAL leadership race

Immediately following the European Parliament election, PASOK – KINAL high-ranking members raised the issue of leadership one after the other, in response to the election results that were perceived as mediocre, coercing PASOK – KINAL President Nikos Androulakis to call for early leadership elections for October of the same year, bypassing the planned ones for late 2025.[27] Newly elected mayor of Athens, Haris Doukas,[28] as well as MP Pavlos Geroulanos,[28] announced their candidacies on the same Central Committee meeting, that elections were decided upon. Other candidates included Anna Diamantopoulou,[29] Michalis Katrinis,[30] and Nadia Giannakopoulou.[31] After a close race for the second spot between Doukas and Geroulanos, Doukas made it to the second round along with Androulakis;[32] however, he went on to lose on a 20-point margin against him. Nikos Androulakis was re-elected to the Presidency of PASOK – KINAL,[33] and so he became the Leader of the Official Opposition in late November 2024, as enough Syriza MPs became independent for it to drop in seat count behind PASOK – KINAL.[34]

2025 presidential election

By late 2024, as the purported date of the election of the President of the Hellenic Republic approached,[35] parties began announcing their candidates for the post.[36][37][38] Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis proposed Kostas Tasoulas,[39] who won out in the end after four rounds of voting, with 160 votes out of 300, on 12 February 2025.[40]

Farming subsidies scandal (OPEKEPE)

In May 2025, the "OPEKEPE scandal" broke out over the abuse of farming subsidies, from illegal ones, false declarations of farmland, and general covering-up of the entire scheme. Initiated by whistleblowers and an intervention by the European Public Prosecutor's Office, the scandal forced resignations of government ministers and caused a political turmoil.

Formation of Elpida and ELAS

Maria Karystianou is a Greek paediatrician and activist who lost her daughter in the 2023 Tempi train crash. She subsequently became a founding member and president of the "Tempi 2023 Victims' Association" and emerged as the leading figure of the movement seeking accountability for the railway disaster.[41][42][43] In January 2026, she announced the formation of an anti-corruption political movement with the aim of participating in the electoral process.[44] This decision sparked reactions within the "Tempi 2023 Victims' Association", with the majority of the association demanding her resignation.[45] On January 13, 2026, she resigned as president of the association, and on May 21 launched her party, "Hope for Democracy".[46][47][48]

After the June 2023 elections, Alexis Tsipras, then president of SYRIZA and Leader of the Official Opposition, announced an internal party election to select new leadership. He also announced his resignation as party president and that he would not be a candidate in the election.[49][50][51] In March 2024, he was elected Chair of the Council of Europe’s Sub-Committee on the Western Balkans, a position he held until January 2026.[52]

On October 6, 2025, Alexis Tsipras resigned as a member of parliament.[53][54] He later published an autobiography titled Ithaca.[55] For several months, there was speculation that Tsipras would form his own party.[56][57][58] Ultimately, on May 26, 2026, Tsipras formally launched the Greek Left Alliance (ELAS).[59][60][61] Since its formation, the party has consistently ranked second in opinion polls.

The formation of ELAS caused turmoil within Syriza, with several MPs and party officials departing.[62][63][64][65] However, despite the defections, Syriza's Central Committee has confirmed that the party would contest in the upcoming national elections and began preparations for its electoral lists.[66]

Electoral system

Compulsory voting is in force for the elections, with voter registration being automatic;[67] however, none of the legally existing penalties or sanctions have ever been enforced.[68] In January 2020, soon after returning to power, New Democracy, which has always been a proponent of majority bonuses since 1974, passed a new electoral law to reinstate them, albeit under a significantly different formula. The party list coming first would receive 20 extra seats,(down from 50, with the constituency seats up from 250 to 280) provided it received at least 25% of the vote. Moreover, a new sliding scale disproportionality would help the larger party lists: those receiving between 25% and 40% of the vote would receive one seat for every half percentage point in this range (up to 30 seats) before the proper proportional distribution begins. A winning party may thus receive up to 50 extra seats; however, this 2020 law also lacked the supermajority to take immediate effect. As a result, it took effect in the second election after the passage of the law, namely the June 2023 parliamentary election.[69] In the 2024 European Parliament election in Greece, citizens were allowed to vote by mail for the first time through a new process, where the possibility of voting from abroad through separate ballot boxes was abolished and the previous electoral rolls were wiped, and mail-in ballots were shipped upon registration to the new election rolls for mail-in voting.[70]

The new electoral system, favoring parties over coaltions, led to the amalgamation of PASOK – Movement for Change into a unitary party on 29 March 2026.[71][72][73]
