George C Poulos voting for the first time in Greek elections

Greek National elections - 20th September, 2015.

What a "buzz" that was.

But what an extraordinary system that operates in Greece.

I was handed the same sized pamphlet for every party. About 19 in total.

Most of the forms were placed in the garbage after use.

My immediate thought was why don't European countries adopt a preferential voting system ala Australia?

Spirathoula Mentis.

A Relative. My maternal grandmother, Yeoryia Koroneos, was a Mentis.

My mother always referred to herself as a "Mentitha" in preference to a "Koroneissa. The Mentis derive from the adjacent island of Lafonnissi - where they continue to dominate the population statistics.

The first woman I met on the trip to the island (June 28, 2007) was a Mentis..tou Yanni.
