Makis (Mavroudis) Voridis (Greek: Μάκης Μαυρουδής Βορίδης) (born 1964) is a Greek lawyer, politician, MP and parliament representative of the Popular Orthodox Rally political party. He is also the former leader of the Hellenic Front party.
Voridis graduated from Athens College and acquired his degree from the Law School of the University of Athens. He also acquired a Master of Laws with merit from University College of London. Voridis specialized in international commercial law, penal law, and the philosophy of law.
During his compulsory military service from 1992 to 1993, graduated class leader (92 A' ESSO) in Artillery School and he served as an Artillery Cadet Reserve Officer and gained the rank of second lieutenant.
In 1994, he founded the right-wing political party Hellenic Front and became its first president. He unsuccessfully ran for the position of Athens mayor in 1998 and 2002. The Hellenic Front under the chairmanship of Voridis performed lamentably in the 2004 general election and managed to gather only 7000 (0,1%) votes. As a result of this, the Hellenic Front ceased its political activity in 2005 and was subsequently merged with the more successful Popular Orthodox Rally (LAOS) party. Voridis is currently a member of the political council of LAOS.
Voridis has a law office in Athens and competed for a council seat in the 2006 local elections on the LAOS ticket in East Attica, eventually securing 5% of the vote and getting elected prefectural councillor.
On September 16, 2007, Makis Voridis was elected Member of the Greek Parliament with the LA.O.S. party, calling up 8,663 votes in the Attica district, with a potential difference of 5174 votes from the second candidate, Tania Iakovidou, a TV Star.
