(ANSA) - BELGRADE, APR 21 - Slovenia will go to the polls on
Sunday for the parliamentary elections, with a neck-and-neck run
for the victory between the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) led
by conservative Prime Minister Janez Jansa, and the new liberal
and progressive Freedom Movement (Gibanije Svoboda) of former
public top manager Robert Golob. According to the polls, the
two political forces have a gap of about one percentage point
between each other. The Social Democrats (SD) could get around
8% of votes, followed by the Left (Levica), while Nova Slovenija
(NSi), is firmly given around the 7%. The movements of two
former heads of government, the Party of Alenka Bratušek (SAB)
and the Lista Marjan Šarec (LMŠ), risk not breaking through the
barrier threshold for entering the Parliament, as well as a
number of other formations, such as the Pensioners' Party
(DeSUS). (ANSA).
