Summary:

  • Carlos Moedas and Alexandra Leitão are tied in the latest poll for Lisbon mayor, with Moedas experiencing a decline in support.

  • Only Moedas and Leitão have viable chances to win, while Chega and CDU lag far behind by 15 and 23 points.

  • The poll, conducted by ICS/ISCTE for Expresso/SIC, comes just over a week before the municipal elections, indicating a highly competitive race.

Poll Shows Tie in Lisbon Mayoral Race

With just over a week to go until the municipal elections, the race for mayor of Lisbon is wide open, but the news is not the same for Carlos Moedas and Alexandra Leitão. The incumbent, Moedas, not only fails to pull ahead in the polls but has actually dropped in the latest ICS/ISCTE survey for Expresso/SIC.

Key Contenders and Their Positions

Moedas, a social-democrat, and Leitão, a socialist, are the only candidates with a realistic chance of being elected mayor of Lisbon. Other parties, such as Chega and the CDU, trail significantly, with gaps of 15 and 23 points respectively.

This survey highlights the intense competition and shifting dynamics in the capital's political landscape as election day approaches.
