Portuguese far-right Chega party leader, Andre Ventura, votes in a close-fought general election, with no party expected to garner a majority in parliament in a fragmented political landscape that could see the far right make huge gains. Founded in 2019, Chega, or "Enough", won one seat in parliament that same year, a first for a far-right party since the end of Portugal's dictatorship. IMAGES

President of the centre-right Social-Democratic Party Partido Social Democrata (PSD) since May 2022, Luis Montenegro holds his final rally ahead of the March 10 general election.
