Slovenia: Pirc Musar favourite at presidential run-off

But a close result is predicted, turnout decisive

12 November, 10:18
(ANSA) - BELGRADE, NOV 12 - Natasa Pirc Musar is expected to win the presidential run-off on Sunday, but it will be a close race because Democrats (SDS) MP Ane Logar appears to have closed the gap in the final weeks of campaigning. According to analysts, the turnout will be crucial, with a low turnout likely to favor Logar, according to the Slovenian news agency STA. Pirc Musar, a left-liberal, leads conservative Logar 51.7% to 44.6% in a Delo and POP TV poll released yesterday, compared to double-digit leads Pirc Musar had in the previous round of polling. However, according to a Ninamedia poll for Dnevnik, Pirc Musar will win by just two points. (ANSA).
