Español (es) los sondeos confirman el avance de la derecha en las elecciones suizas

The poll conducted on behalf of the Tamedia media group and 20 Minuten predicts a 2.3% gain for the People's Party while the Greens are tipped to lose 2.5% of the vote from the last election.

+ can voters resist conpiracy theories during elections?

Earlier this month, the third electoral barometer conducted by the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation highlighted similar results.

The People's Party are winning hearts and minds on the themes of healthcare costs, pensions and immigration, the Tamedia survey found. The issue of climate change has dropped to fifth priority place among voter concerns.

Political parties in the centre ground are expected to attract roughly the same number of votes in October as they did in 2019.

But voters are forecast to reverse the trend of the last general election that saw the Greens making gains at the expense of the People's Party.

The Tamedia poll took the pulse of 25,000 voters in mid-July and has a margin of error of +/- 1.1%.
