Slovenian Prime Minister Janez Drnovsek has won the most votes in Slovenia's presidential election, according to partial official results. However he does not seem to have won enough support to avoid a second-round run-off. With more than one quarter of ballots counted, results showed that Mr Drnovsek, the election favourite, had won about 45% of the vote. His closest rival, former state prosecutor Barbara Brezigar who was expected to mount a strong challenge, has about 30% of the vote. None of the other seven candidates won more than 10% of the vote, French news agency AFP reported. Mr Drnovsek, who is backed by outgoing president Milan Kucan, told Slovenian radio that he was "pleased" with the provisional results but that he "expected" to go to a second round.
