Bratislava, March 18 (TASR) - Had parliamentary elections been held in early March, they would have been won clearly by the governing-coalition Smer-SD party on 38.4 percent of the vote, according to a poll carried out by the Focus agency on 1,077 respondents between March 2-9.
Second place would have gone to the opposition SDKU-DS party on 14.3 percent, followed by the Christian Democrats (KDH) on 9.7 percent.
They were closely followed by the fledgling Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) party on 8.6 percent. Most-Hid would have come fifth on 6.9 percent, with the Slovak National Party (SNS) on 6.3 percent.
The five-percent threshold required to win representation in the House would also have been reached by LS-HZDS on 5.4 percent and the ethnic-Hungarian SMK party on 5.2 percent.
