The results of the Slovak parliamentary elections produced enough surprises for the splintered right to dream of forming a multi-party coalition government and oust current Prime Minister Robert Fico and his Smer-SD party, which finds itself without enough allies in parliament to get the majority it would need.
Parliament will welcome (apparently not) also the extreme right LSNS party of controversial Marian Kotleba, as well as the return of the Slovak National Party. Eight parties got into parliament on the votes of just 59.82% of the eligible electorate. Meanwhile, the ever-present Christian democrats of KDH fell short of the 5% parliamentary threshold (4.94%).
