Poll shows Greens at 10 percent

A new poll, conducted in March by the CVVM agency, has suggested that if elections were held today, the Green Party could get as much as ten percent of the vote. A number of polls have confirmed a rise in pre-election support for the party, until recently marginal on the Czech political scene. The party has never made it into Czech Parliament. A number of surveys now show the Greens' approval rating that of the Christian Democrats (at around 6 percent), and drawing close to the Communist Party (at 12.5 percent).

Most polls still show the country's largest opposition party, the right-of-centre Civic Democrats as first (25.5 percent), followed by the Social Democrats (21 percent).
