| | Ivan Gasparovic, who left Meciar's Movement for a Democratic Slovakia in 2002 to form his own party, was second with about 22.3 percent of the vote. | | | Vladimir Meciar, whose rule was criticized by Western leaders for its lack of democracy and rule of law, won 32.7 percent of the vote in his bid for the mostly ceremonial presidency, said Ladislav Jaca, a central election commission official. | | | He is popular among elderly voters, who have suffered in the reforms Slovakia since has gone through. |

| | Election shock rocks Slovakia - (United Press International) |
| | Worse, government officials may have confused voters by asking them to boycott a referendum being held simultaneously calling for early parliamentary elections. | | | By midmorning on Sunday it had become clear that authoritarian former Prime Minister Vladimir Meciar had come first, by a mile, and one-time party colleague Ivan Gasparovic, a man almost as deeply implicated in the political scandals of the 1990s as Meciar himself, had come second just ahead of Eduard Kukan, the government candidate. | | | In a new democracy this may have been a major tactical mistake, especially since the referendum would have needed the accompaniment of an improbable three-fifths majority in parliament to force new elections in any case. |

| | Wary diplomats who once shunned Slovakia for anti-democratic policies when Mr Meciar ruled and Mr Gasparovic was at his side as parliamentary speaker, said deeds, not words, were needed to allay fears that he will hinder Slovakia's integration with the EU and the NATO security alliance, which it joined last month. | | | Slovaks dealt a knockout blow to hardline nationalist former prime minister Vladimir Meciar in a presidential election, choosing the more moderate Ivan Gasparovic just weeks before joining the European Union (EU). | | | The election run-off that excluded the pro-Government early favourite Eduard Kukan, reflects a broader rise of populist forces in new EU members, which analysts say may complicate the bloc's functioning after enlargement. |
