EVP-Parteienbarometer

EPP Party Barometer December 2022

The Situation of the European People’s Party in the EU

The EPP Party Barometer illustrates the strength of the European party families in current opinion polls - with a particular focus on the European People's Party (EPP).

According to opinion polls, the EPP family and the Socialists are the strongest political groups, both leading in eight countries. The Liberals/Renew lead the polls in five, and the Euro-sceptic national conservative ECR in two countries. The Left (GUE/NGL) is leading in Ireland. In Hungary, Fidesz was in the lead (not yet part of a party family) and formally independent parties or alliances comprising several party families were ahead in two countries (Lithuania, Bulgaria). The picture is similar if we look at the strongest single party and not the largest party family. Then the EPP leads in ten countries, the Socialists in seven. The Liberals are ahead in five, the ECR in two, and the Left as well as ID (far-right) in one country each; in Hungary, Fidesz (not yet a new party family) is in the lead. The lead over other party families or other individual parties is often very narrow (e.g. Slovenia, Poland, Lithuania, Belgium, Denmark), or other polls see another party family or individual party in the lead.
