Tsipras: Upcoming election is like a second referendum

Sunday’s election battle is the second referendum for the future of Greece, SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras said on Wednesday during an election rally in the town of Patras. 

“The battle of September 20 is the second great referendum for the future of our people and our country,” he said, adding that “on Sunday we vote to reject the return of the old status quo of servitude, dependence, corruption and vested interests.” 
 
He urged voters to reject New Democracy which represents in the best way “the system of vested interests and dependence of Conservatism and oligarchy.”
Tsipras also noted that the result of the elections will decide on the government of the next four years and therefore people must choose SYRIZA, so that people may have on Monday its own government. He also called on all voters to participate in the elections.
