Golden Dawn Gets 17%, Three Times What They Got in the Last Elections

The Golden Dawn’s mayoral candidate, Ilias Kasidiaris, has gotten 17% of the popular vote in the Athens mayoral election, according to the present count.  This puts him in forth place.

Though disappointing, as I had expected him to make it to the second round on the 25th, this still puts the party in a place far beyond where they were in 2010, when they got 5.3% in the general elections.  More than tripling their support in three years, while also having a third of their elected party members locked up in jail, is incredible no matter how you look at it.

Even without the mayoral victory, the party will still have multiple seats on the city council.

The leftist and sometimes Antisemitic Syriza party, a far-left coalition which claims to be anti-establishment and anti-austerity, appears to be in a position to win out over the establishment completely, with independent candidates also doing very well.

Ilias Panayiotaros, who was running for leader of the provincial region of Attica, appears to have gotten 11% of the vote.

Riots are not occurring.

Vote Manipulation and Intimidation

It was reported by Golden Dawn observers and voting citizens at polling stations that several schools where the votes were to take place “forgot” to include the vote slip for the Golden Dawn (running as Hellenic Dawn in the local elections).

It was also reported that leftist radicals were intimidating votes at polling stations.

Marxists: They come at you.
Marxists: They come at you.

It has also been alleged that polling was made confusing on purpose, with older people being coached on which boxes to check by workers at polling stations.

Surely, this will all be investigated, and justice brought to the guilty.

Just joking.

EU Elections

On the 25th, the much more important European Parliament elections will take place.  If the Golden Dawn keeps up their present momentum at these elections, they should get an even higher percentage of the vote, given that non-party candidates are not allowed to run in these elections, and it was non-party candidates who drew away support for them in these elections.

The Golden Dawn is the third biggest party, and if they get a quarter of the vote on the 25th, this will give them huge publicity and the ability to speak as they are known for speaking in the EU Parliament.

The lines in Greece continue to be drawn, with the old parties becoming irrelevant and Golden Dawn preparing for a showdown with the far left in the general elections, which may be held as soon as February of next year.

Hail Victory.
