Early voting began in Portugal on Sunday for a snap general election, with polls showing the incumbent Socialists still ahead though with their lead over the nearest centre-right rivals narrowing.
The early voting option was provided this year to reduce crowding on election day, next Sunday, due to the pandemic.
"All the conditions are there for everybody to go out and vote in security," said Costa after voting. The election could see gains for the upstart far-right party Chega, which entered parliament for the first time with a single seat during the last election in 2019. If his party wins the most votes but again lacks a majority, Costa has said he plans to govern alone by negotiating support from other parties for laws on a case-by-case basis.
