	Greek legislative election, 2004
		Legislative elections were held in Greece on March 7, 2004.
		Since opinion polls are banned in the last two weeks of Greek election campaigns, it was not possible to predict the outcome of the election, except to say that ND appeared to have been leading when the last polls were published, and that most commentators expected the result in terms of votes to be close.
		Greek electoral law requires, however, that a party polling a plurity of votes (that is, more than any other party) must receive a majority of parliamentary seats.

		In countries where the election process is flawed the political leadership lacks legitimacy.
		While liberal democracy is characterized by competitive elections, the rule of law, the separation of powers and the protection of basic political liberties, "illiberal democracy" may well permit competitive elections, but shows little respect for the aforementioned basic liberal rights.
		For a country to qualify as a liberal democracy the holding of political elections every few years is not enough.

		In the first election since Greek Cypriots rejected and Turkish Cypriots backed a U.N. peace plan in 2004, parties with opposing views on reunification are vying for most of the legislative assembly's 56 seats.

		The Greek Cypriots rejected it in a referendum, with their main objection being that the plan did not guarantee the return of their homes or property taken by the Turks.
