The situation between Wallonia and Brussels seems to be increasingly different. In the capital, it is still Ecolo-Groen which is in the lead (20.3%, +1) ahead of a sharply rising MR (19.9%, +2.5). Behind, the PTB moved into third place (16.4%, +1.3) ahead of a PS still struggling in the capital (15.1%, stable). DéFI remains the fifth party (10.8%, -0.5) while Les Engagés falls below the 5% mark (4.9%, -0.3).
As for personalities, Foreign Minister Sophie Wilmès (MR) is the most popular in Wallonia, ahead of Prime Minister Alexander De Croo (Open Vld) and PS President Paul Magnette. These three personalities also appear on the Brussels podium, with Alexander De Croo ahead of Sophie Wilmès and Paul Magnette here.
In Flanders, the Prime Minister is also the most popular personality, while his party, the Open Vld does not benefit from this. He is ahead of Vooruit president Conner Rousseau and N-VA president Bart De Wever.
