According to public-opinion polls, the center-left Democratic Party, led by Pier Luigi Bersani, along with some more left-leaning allies, has the support of roughly 33% of the electorate, down since late January, while backing for Berlusconi’s center-right coalition has risen to 28%. Meanwhile, Monti’s centrist grouping has only 16% support, while the populist Five Star Movement, founded by the comedian Beppe Grillo in 2009, has 17% backing – a figure that could go higher if those who previously stayed at home decide to cast a protest vote.
民调结果显示，由贝尔萨尼领导的中间偏左民主党及某些更为左倾的合作伙伴共同赢得了约33%的选民支持，这一数据比一月下旬有所下降，而同一阶段对贝卢斯科尼中间偏右联盟的支持率已经上升至28%。此外，蒙蒂的中间团体仅获16%的支持率，而喜剧演员毕普·格里罗于2009年成立的民粹主义五星运动的支持率则为17%，如果居家人士决定投票抗议这一数字还有可能增加。
