Slovenia's ruling liberals and the main right-wing party were tied, according to nearly-final preliminary figures from Sunday's parliamentary election.
After tallying about 99% of the votes, the State Election Commission reported the centre-left Freedom Movement, led by Prime Minister Robert Golob, received 28.5% of the vote, while the right-wing Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) led by former Premier Janez Janša received 28.1%.
