Greeks are headed to the polls on Sunday Sep 20,2015 after Prime Minister Alexis
Tsipras handed in his resignation last month.
Alexis Tsipras was forced to resign after he lost the support of a significant part of his Syriza party over Greece’s bailout agreement with international creditors.
AlexisTsipras is hoping Sunday’s election will give him a new mandate to return to the prime minister’s office.
This Sunday’s elections in Greece will cost the cash-strapped nation an estimated 33.2 Million Euros, or almost $37.5 million, the country’s interior ministry revealed.
The largest share of the election budget, about $30.5 million, is reserved to pay members of the election commissions supervising the polling stations and judicial representatives overseeing the vote count
Another part of the money will be disbursed for polling stations’ equipment and supplies like ballot boxes and voting screens.
Greece also provides subsidies to political parties to run their campaigns, nearly $4 million in total
Sunday’s vote will be the third in Greece this year 2015, coming after the national election that brought Tsipras to power in January 2015 and a national referendum on the country’s bailout agreement.
The referendum international bailout cost taxpayers about $30 million and the January 2015 election cost the country $57.7 million.
