On 12th June 2010 the parliamentary elections in Slovakia took place with following results: Social-democratic party SMER came out as a winner of the polls with 34, 79% of the vote , but a coalition of center-right parties have sworn not to join this party in government. The only parliamentary party willing to work with SMER are the Nationalists (SNS) and nobody else. These two parties hold a mandate of 71 parliamentary seats. Centre-right parties got all together 79 seats in 150-seat parliament. This situation provides only one conclusion that center-right parties gain the right to form a coalition government containing following parties: center-right Slovak Democratic and Christian Union (SDKU) – which presided over government from 1998-2006, Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) – new right-wing party uniquely promoting decriminalization of marihuana and registered partnerships between same-sex couples , the Christian Democratic Movement (KDH) and a Slovak-Hungarian party „Bridge“ (Most-Hid). It seems that first time in its history, Slovakia will have a female prime-minister Iveta Radicova (SDKU). This will be confirmed on Wednesday, 23rd June, when the Slovak president should entrust Iveta Radicova with creation of a new government, since Robert Fico, the leader of SMER, has not been able to perform the task.

Slovak Green Party
The Greens in Slovakia didn’t run for these parliamentary elections on their own, but they made an agreement with a smaller newly formed left party called Slovak Democratic Left – SDL and put Green candidates on its the list. The quorum for entering parliament in Slovakia is 5% and for getting reimbursement for the election campaign it is necessary to get at least 3% in the polls. Despite of one of the biggest and most visible campaign strategies, that SDL got, it received only 2.41% of the vote, which is not enough for both conditions.

Slovak Green Party will not give up therefore. The Board will gather energy and start soon again with planning and preparations for another elections, the local ones, that will be organized in November this year.
