Poll suggests government parties would be unable to form coalition now

Opposition leaders ANO would have come first in general elections held at the turn of May with 30.5 percent, suggests a poll by the Kantar agency published on Sunday.

The survey indicates that the three parties in the Together bloc, who are in government with the Mayors and the Pirates, would together have taken 25 percent of the vote; all five groupings together would have picked up 43 percent of the vote.

A Kantar analyst said the poll suggested the current government coalition would be unable to form a majority again.

The survey indicates the Civic Democrats would get 17 percent, the Pirates 11 percent and Freedom and Direct Democracy 9 percent. The Mayors, TOP 09, the Social Democrats and the Christian Democrats are all just above the 5 percent threshold.
