Opposition wins Slovakia poll
A leftist party led by one of the few leading politicians in Slovakia to escape voter anger over a major corruption scandal has been propelled back into power in an early parliamentary election, according to final results today.
Smer-Social Democracy of former Prime Minister Robert Fico is a clear winner with 44.4% of the vote, or 83 seats in the 150-seat Parliament, with votes from all 5,956 polling stations counted.
