Sokratis Famellos is set to become SYRIZA's new president after securing 49.41% of the vote in the first round of the party's leadership election. With this strong lead, it appears that Pavlos Polakis, who finished second with 43.51%, will accept Famellos' victory without contesting a second-round vote next Sunday.
The final results, with 99% of votes counted, show:
Voter turnout reached 70,152, surpassing initial expectations and prompting an hour-long extension to allow more party members to cast their votes.
In a significant development, Polakis’ camp has confirmed that, regardless of whether Famellos secures 50% in the final count, they will not disrupt the process or call for additional voting, signaling acceptance of Famellos' victory. The final official results are still pending.
