How did the media coverage and actions of the mainstream parties contribute to Chega's rapid rise?

Chega's electoral success is linked to widespread abstention and dissatisfaction with the political system among Portuguese voters. Professor Marina Costa Lobo highlights the role of the right party and leader in capitalizing on this sentiment. The mainstream parties, PS and PSD, bear some responsibility due to repeated snap elections and internal conflicts, neglecting to address voter disillusionment.

How did the Chega party's rise to prominence relate to broader European trends of growing far-right influence and dissatisfaction with traditional political parties?

Chega's rise reflects broader European trends of increasing far-right influence in national politics. The party's success is tied to its nationalist stance and anti-immigrant policies, capitalizing on voter dissatisfaction with traditional parties and instability in government formations. This shift challenges the previously stable two-party system in Portugal and mirrors similar patterns in other European countries.

How did the results of the Portuguese diaspora vote contribute to the overall election outcome and the shift in political power?

Chega's rise reflects a broader rightward shift in Europe. Their strong showing in the diaspora vote (27% compared to AD's 15.6% and PS's 13.4%) underscores this trend. The PS's failure to elect any representatives from abroad for the first time highlights the extent of their decline and the realignment of Portuguese politics.

How did the election results impact the prospects for coalition government formation in Portugal?

Chega's strong showing reflects a shift in Portuguese politics, with the far-right gaining significant traction. Their success, particularly amongst young voters (as reported in a previous Le Monde article), challenges the established political landscape and could lead to increased political polarization. The Democratic Alliance's failure to secure a majority necessitates coalition building.

Chega's support increased drastically from 1.3% in 2019 to 22.76% in this election, reflecting growing public discontent. The Socialist Party's poor performance, losing 20 seats compared to last year, highlights this trend.

The Socialists' seat count dropped significantly from 120 to 58, reflecting a broader rightward trend in European politics. This outcome presents challenges to government stability.
