BELGRADE, Serbia (AA) - Slovenians on Sunday headed to polls for parliamentary elections.
Polls conducted ahead of the elections indicate a tight race between the right-wing Slovenian Democratic Party (SDP) of Prime Minister Janez Jansa and the environmentalist Freedom Movement (PS) led by Robert Golob.
Jansa is a strong advocate of EU enlargement, including membership for Ukraine. He is keen to win a fourth parliamentary term in his small 2.1 million Balkan nation.
There are nearly 1.7 million registered voters, including some 106,000 located abroad. The voting began at 7:00 a.m. local time (0500 GMT) and will end at 7:00 p.m.
Surveys suggested that there could be no clear winner, leading to the formation of a coalition government of at least three or four parties.
