| | Presidential election in slovakia |
 | | The former Prime Minister of Slovakia (almost uninterrupted between 1990 and 1998) once again succeeded in mobilising his voters, who are to be found mostly in the country's poor and rural regions. | | | Nevertheless the leader of the Movement for a Democratic Slovakia continues to be a major source of antipathy on the part of many Slovaks that might not play in his favour. | | | Although Mikulas Dzurinda can be satisfied with the confidence that the electorate have granted him again with a majority of them refusing to vote in the referendum, he might be disappointed with the surprise elimination of his candidate, the Foreign Affairs Minister, Edward Kukan, during the first round of the presidential election. |
