  • The center (slight left leaning) party won by a landslide because everyone was fed up with the right wing party who’d been in charge for 14 years.

    The far-right party went from 0 to 13 seats in a single election (think the MAGA of england basically). Since the center-right party lost so bad, people are scared the far right party will have more influence on the right and ultimately lead to the center right party either merging with the far right party or being more radical to “meet them”.

    One could make the parallels to when Macron won the election with a centrist coalition a couple years ago, but in the process heavily weakened the center right party, which ultimately lead to the rise of the far right.

    Ignoring that though. The center-(left) government will be much better than the government we had before.
