New electoral poll puts Okamura party second behind ANO

A freshly published opinion poll by the STEM agency for CNN Prima News suggests ANO would have won elections in September with 30 percent of the vote. The survey puts Tomio Okamura’s anti-EU Freedom and Democracy Party second on 14.3 percent, just ahead of government leaders the Civic Democrats on 14.2 percent.

Coalition party the Pirates enjoy 9.4 percent support, the poll suggests, while government colleagues TOP 09 and the Mayors are both on 5 percent. Another coalition party, the Christian Democrats, would fail to reach the 5 percent threshold with 4.5 percent. The Social Democrats and Communists would not make it back into the lower house, the survey indicates.
