In an exclusive for RTVS and Slovak Radio and after the approval of all presidential candidates, the Chairman of the National Council held a survey in regards to the election of the President of the Slovak Republic.
Respondents were asked this question: “The presidential elections will be held in Slovakia in mid-March. Imagine, however, that these were to take place this weekend and the next president would be chosen from a list of candidates whose names which appear in alphabetical order. Which one would you vote for?” From a representative sample of 1,010 respondents in the survey, eleven and a half percent were unable to answer the question, and six percent of the respondents would not vote.
