Published on the last day that political opinion polls can be published, three polls on Friday all suggest that May 6 election will produce a ten-party parliament, which hasn't happened since the 1950 general election.

The three polls – Kapa for Ta Nea, Marc for Ethnos and Rass for Eleftheros Typos – produce a number of common conclusions: based on the averages from the three polls, ND and Pasok would get almost 42 percent of the vote, there is an average 5.8 percent difference between the two of them, no party would win an overall majority and a quarter of the electorate remains undecided.

Indeed, the Kapa/Ta Nea poll suggests ND and Pasok could win 170 seats in the new parliament.

The three polls reveals that Alexis Tsipras' Radical Left Coaltion is in third place, ousting the long-dominant Communist Party (KKE) as the leading leftwing party. Altogether, the leftwing parties, including the Democratic Left, would take just over 27 percent of votes.

On the right, Panos Kammenos' Independent Greeks party continues to poll well, with just over 9 percent of the vote.

It what is looking like first for the post-1974 republic, the neofascist Golden Dawn also seems set to enter parliament, enjoying a full one point lead over the country's onetime sponge for the extreme rightwing, Yiorgos Karatzaferis' Popular Orthodox Rally.

Dora Bakoyannis' Democratic Alliance party is also likely to scrape into parliament, the thre polls suggest.

Here is what the polls predict the parties will get in the May 6 elections (excluding abstentions and undecided voters):
