If the parliamentary elections were held in the final week of April, the most voters would support the strongest party Smer. It would receive 30.7 percent of the vote, resulting in 56 parliamentary seats. This stems from a poll carried out by the Polis agency for the SITA newswire between April 22 and 29 on 1,502 respondents.

Second would be Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) supported by 14.5 percent (26 seats), followed by the Slovak National Party with 12.2 percent (22 seats). Also far-right Kotleba – People’s Party Our Slovakia (ĽSNS) would make it to the house with 9.8 percent (18 seats), as well as the Ordinary People and Independent Personalities (OĽaNO) with 9.5 percent (17 seats) and Most-Híd with 6 percent (11 seats).

Of the current parliamentary parties, two would fail to pass the 5-percent threshold. Sme Rodina of Boris Kollár would win the support of only 4.2 percent of voters, while Sieť would get only 2 percent, SITA reported.
