Greek Elections: Tsipras Back, Parties Support EU Talks
SYRIZA who won January's election has won again, but they are down like 4 seats.
So far it seems they won 145 out of the 300 total Parliamentary seats. Their coalition partner, Independent Greeks, has 10 so once again the Government is on a very thin edge.
Quote:
Greece's conservative New Democracy party has admitted defeat to Alexis Tsipras's left-wing Syriza in the nation's fifth election in six years.
The concession came as Syriza was given a lead of 35% to New Democracy's 28%, with 21% of votes counted, interior ministry data showed.
This would not give Syriza an absolute majority, and the party would need partners to form a government.
