Greece's Syriza expands lead

FXStreet (Bali) - Greece's anti-austerity party - Syriza - has expanded the lead over its main opposition conservative parties ahead of the Jan 25th general election, recent polls show, according to a Reuters report.

From Reuters: "The survey by pollster Kapa Research for Sunday's To Vima newspaper showed the radical leftists' lead widening to 3.1 percentage points from 2.6 points in a previous poll earlier in the month. The survey would win 31.2 percent of the vote if the election was held now, versus 28.1 percent for Prime Minister Antonis Samaras' New Democracy conservatives. The centrist party To Potami (River) ranked third with 5.4 percent."
