Reuters are reporting that early turnout for the Greek election today appears to be low, reflecting weariness amongst the electorate for the third ballot this year
Officials at one polling station in central Athens told Reuters that by midday only 37 of 530 registered voters had cast votes. At another station just 51 from 512 had done so
Greek broadcaster ERT said one polling station in an Athens suburb recorded only 25 votes cast in the first 3 hours
With the last polls showing a narrow lead for Tsipras and Syriza there were 10% undecided although they tended in that direction too
So an apathetic/low turn out today could well cause some upset and add to the expected coalition talk turmoil
I previewed the event here yesterday
I'm heading back out now for the rest of the day but Eamonn will bring you the latest on Greece when he starts later
Enjoy the rest of your week-end out there.
Greek election - Not exactly a mad rush to the polling stations so far
