The political landscape in Cyprus is highly unstable, raising questions about which party will emerge victorious in the elections on May 24. Traditional parties are working to mobilize their voters and limit losses to new political formations such as ALMA and Direct Democracy. The contest for the lead between DISY and AKEL is tightly contested, with recent polls showing low percentages for both parties. The ability of parties to retain voters may significantly influence the election outcome. The importance of winning, even with reduced percentages, carries psychological and symbolic weight.
