    On average, 11% more respondents say they will vote in this year’s European Parliament elections (June 6-9), according to Eurobaromter’s April poll, the latest before the June elections.

    In 2019, 49% of people expressed a willingness to vote in the elections, and the actual turnout was even higher – 51%.

    This year, 60% say they are ready to vote in the European Parliament elections.

    The largest increases were recorded in countries such as Croatia (24%), Czech Republic (22%), Lithuania (20%), Finland (20%) and Spain (19%). Particularly interesting is the increase in reported turnout in the Czech Republic, where voters are least motivated to participate in European elections. In 2019, turnout here was only 28.72%, and less than 20% of Eurobarometer survey respondents declared voting. Today, 38% of people say they are ready to vote in the elections to the European Parliament.

    Traditionally, the most mobilized voters are in the Netherlands (this year 72% of respondents say they are ready to take part in the elections, 11% more than in 2019), Germany (70% in 2014 versus 57% in 2019), Ireland (29% year compared to 58% in 2019), Luxembourg (68% in 2024 compared to 57% in 2019), Malta (68% in 2024 compared to 57% in 2019), Austria (66 % in 2024) compared to 55% in 2019 and Sweden (65% in 2024 compared to 62% in 2019).

    Hungarians also vote in large numbers in the European Parliament elections, with 65% of people declaring their intention to vote in the current European Parliament elections. respondents versus 50% in 2019 (the actual turnout in the last elections was 43.48%).

    In Poland, 63% of people expressed their intention to vote in the current elections to the European Parliament. respondents – 11% more than in 2019. However, the actual turnout in the 2019 European Parliament elections was lower than declared – it amounted to 45.68%.

    Voters are least mobilized to vote in countries such as the already mentioned Czech Republic, as well as Bulgaria, Slovakia, Slovenia, Lithuania, France and Estonia. Less than 50% of people say they are ready to vote in the European Parliament elections.

    As we can see, apart from France, this problem mainly concerns countries that joined the EU during the last wave of enlargement.
