The anti-immigrant Slovenian Democratic Party looks set to win the most votes in Sunday’s election in the country.
Led by Janez Janša, it has seen an increase in support since nearly half a million migrants crossed Slovenia to Western Europe two years ago.
He is competing against Miro Cerar of the centre-left Modern Centre Party, who was prime minister from 2014 until March this year and Marjan Šarec, an independent candidate who was elected Mayor of Kamnik in 2014.
Political analysts such as Miha Kovac suggest that Janša has employed tactics from other world leaders.
"This election campaign was actually really brilliant for Slovenian standards," he explained.
"They (SDS) copied many things which were done by Fidesz in Hungary, many things which were done by American ultra-conservative Republicans in their election campaign. They mixed all these into one and they really performed very well."
Recent polls put Janša on just over 25 percent, with Šarec’s party second on just under 14 percent.
But, a lack of potential coalition partners could keep Slovenian Democratic Party out of office.
More like the anti-invasion party.
Leaning from watching country’s most famous ex-daughter’s husband!
Only one other party seems willing to team up with them and the 2 parties together aren’t projected to get a majority. :/
If it was a party that gained the most votes, shouldn't the headline read Pro Open Borders Party Soundly Defeated in Slovenia?
Sometimes coalitions are formed after the elections when the dust settles.
The Trump Effect.
Of course, Melania comes from Slovenia.
Those Wiley American ultra conservative Republicans...
Trump government will blacklist Slovenia for its right-wing leaning, Russia connection......
Look, Trump government gave Slovenia a thin veiled but explicit warning.

US Ambassador Calls on Slovenia to Decide Between Russia and America

It won’t be long that MSM will tell us Slovenia is a pro-Russia country, anti-islam politicians are Putin’s pawns.
Just like in Germany where the other parties refused to negotiate with AfD despite AfD being the third largest party in Bundestag.
We see it all over the world. The left’s lack of respect for voters has advanced into outright contempt.
American ultra-conservative Republicans
LOL. This is Eurospeak for "mainstream American conservatives."
