ELAM: From an Annex of Golden Dawn to a Governing Party

ELAM consistently demonstrates growing popularity, recording a high percentage (16.5%) in a recent Alpha poll and solidifying its third position. The party's appeal extends beyond its traditional base, with a significant portion of the population not rejecting it. ELAM has emerged as a leading party regarding immigration and security. The party's rise is attributed to its distancing from Golden Dawn, the adaptation of its rhetoric, and the political system's inability to effectively address societal problems. The attraction of personnel from other political spheres, such as DISY, has contributed to its normalization and increased influence.
