New Democracy

Austerity Measures Dept: The conservative New Democracy party appeared to barely lead the others, but all the results fell within the margin of error, according to CBC. The stakes couldn't be higher and three parties are wrestling for the top spot in Greece's critical parliamentary elections Sunday, with no definitive front-runner and none gaining enough votes to form a government, an exit poll commissioned by Greek media showed. The results of the election could determine the course the country takes after years of austerity measures that have angered voters but which were critical in convincing international creditors to extend Greece loans to keep its debt-saddled economy afloat. Voters look set to punish the two main parties that are being held responsible for the country's economic crisis. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
