New poll: Vlaams Belang remains the largest party, PVDA the third largest party

45 days from the elections, Vlaams Belang is and remains the largest party in Flanders. This is evident from the poll by the French-language newspaper La Libre.

With 26 percent, Tom Van Grieken’s party is 7.4 percentage points better than the 2019 elections. N-VA is hardly catching up and remains second at 20.9 percent. That is over 4.6 percent worse off than in 2019. And then the big surprise: PVDA achieves La Libre 12.2 percent. This makes Raoul Hedebouw’s party the third party in Flanders. A jump of 6.6 percent. The two extreme parties are both on stage.

CD&V is at 11.6 percent (-2.6), Vooruit is again close to the election result with 11.5 percent (+0.7). Open VLD is again just above 10 percent (-3.1). For Green, the electoral threshold is now dangerously close. They remain stuck at 6.6 percent (-3.8).

In Wallonia, PS remains the largest with 25.4 percent (-0.7). MR stands at 20.8 percent (+0.3), PVDA at 16 percent (+2.2). Les Engagés are at 13.9 percent (+3.2), Ecolo at 12.7 (-2.2) and Défi lags behind with 4.2 percent (+0.1).

In Brussels, MR is at the top with 22.9 percent, followed by Ecolo (15.5 percent) and PS (14.2 percent). (agy)
