Accordingly, some 42% of the 9,300 poll respondents said they will vote for the party they expect to deliver the most positive results for their own country.
A further 11% will vote for the party that best represents their critical evaluation of their own government’s performance.
Only 13% of the respondents said they will vote according to how the parties get along with the EU.
