Greeks voted in a snap election Sunday with the opposition socialists expected to top Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis' party, which has been hit by corruption scandals and a badly slumping economy. Led by former foreign minister George Papandreou, son of late prime minister Andreas Papandreou, the socialist PASOK party held a lead of 5-7 points over the ruling conservatives in the final opinion polls published two weeks ago.
