Slovene Presidential Elections



The second (and final) round of the Slovene Presidential elections are tomorrow, and these are the two candidates. They both look friendly enough to me, but apparently the guy on the bottom (Lojze Peterle) is something of a centre-right douchebag - whereas the fellow on top is a centre-left former law professor and UN ambassador, and spells his name (Danilo Türk) with an umlaut, which is a big plus in my book (regardless of the fact that there is no umlaut in the Slovene language).

Their campaign slogans translate to something along the lines of:

"You can count on me. Dr Danilo Türk, a president that unites."
"For president, a president for all."
