ELAS seen as stronger alternative than protest movement
A quarter of respondents view ELAS as a credible alternative governing option, while 43% see it mainly as a protest vote. In contrast, only 10% regard Hope for Democracy as a potential governing force, while 52% describe it primarily as a vehicle for protest votes.
