Lithuanians are heading to the polls to vote for a new parliament.<br /><br /> The ruling Social-Democrats are fighting for survival after the election campaign was dominated by scandals and pledges to raising living standards.<br /><br /> And the arrival of Russian nuclear missiles in neighbouring Kaliningrad just a day before the vote has rattled nerves in Vilnius.<br /><br /> Opinion polls show the main parties neck-and-neck: the prime minister’s leftists on 15% and the centrist Peasant and Greens Union on 14%.<br /><br /> Analysts say 20% are still undecided, meaning recent scandals could sway them. In the last month, two ministers survived no-confidence votes.<br /><br /> A second round of voting will be held on October 23.<br />
