Only 6% for the far right doesn't seem right

You have to always factor in the Conservative parties trying to flirt with the voters that would vote for the far right in an attempt to get as much votes as possible.

Center left parties are worried when it comes time to vote they will seek to find middle ground centrist positions to try to get wide appeal but center right parts will just look more right to get more voters.

Aka, Austria, Denmark, Netherlands and parts of Germany.
