Independence Party regaining Iceland’s support


The Independence Party is now the most popular in Reykjavik, according to the latest Gallup poll.

Iceland’s Independence Party received 39 percent support, while 34 percent of respondents said they would vote for the Social Democrats. The Left Green Movement came next with 21 percent and the Progressive Party polled four percent.

The Independence Party therefore gained one percentage point since the last poll and has regained strength to levels last seen in spring 2008.

The Social Democrats have been on the downswing in recent opinion polls and lost one percent on their showing in July. Their Left Green coalition partners on the other hand, have added four percent to their popularity since last time. Support for the Progressive Party has been volatile and their current level of support represents a two percent drop from July.

6,000 people were asked to take part in the survey and 70 percent accepted.
