| Freedom Movement | 41 | New | ||||

The 2022 Slovenian parliamentary election held on 24 April resulted in a landslide victory for the newly formed liberal Freedom Movement, led by former energy executive Robert Golob. The party won 34.5% of the vote and 41 seats, the largest number secured by a single party since independence, displacing the incumbent Slovenian Democratic Party government of Prime Minister Janez Janša.[2] Only five parties entered parliament, the fewest since Slovenia’s independence.
Golob announced a coalition with the Social Democrats, 7 seats and The Left, 5 seats, giving the coalition a working majority of 53 seats.[3] The coalition agreement was signed on 24 May 2022, and the National Assembly confirmed Golob as prime minister shortly afterward. The 15th Government of Slovenia was sworn in on 1 June 2022, comprising ministers from all three coalition partners.[4]
Ministerial changes
Since the formation of Prime Minister Robert Golob's government in 2022, there has been frequent ministerial turnover due to disputes, scandals, and political pressure.
The first major departure came in December 2022, when Interior Minister Tatjana Bobnar resigned over alleged interference in police staffing.[5] She was replaced by Boštjan Poklukar in February 2023.[6]
In 2023, several ministers left, including Health Minister Danijel Bešič Loredan,[7] Agriculture Minister Irena Šinko,[8] and Natural Resources Minister Uroš Brežan.[9] The departures contributed to perceptions of instability, while the Commission for the Prevention of Corruption (KPK) opened an inquiry into Golob.[10]
Turnover continued in 2024. Justice Minister Dominika Švarc Pipan resigned amid the Litijska Affair,[11] and was succeeded by Andreja Katič.[12] Defence Minister Marjan Šarec left after being elected to the European Parliament,[13] and was replaced by Borut Sajovic.[14] Digital Transformation Minister Emilija Stojmenova Duh also resigned later that year.[15]
KPK investigations into Golob intensified through 2024–2025, alongside multiple interpellations and coalition tensions.[16][17]
A major crisis followed in October 2025, when the widely publicized death of Aleš Šutar prompted the resignations of both Justice Minister Katič and Interior Minister Poklukar, who replaced by Andreja Kokalj and Branko Zlobko respectively.[18]
Public dissatisifaction
Since taking office in 2022, the Robert Golob government has struggled with persistently low public approval. A Mediana poll, conducted for Pop TV in June 2025 put government approval at 32,5 %, up only marginally from 31.3 % in May.[19] By September, a Median survey reported support rising to 35 %, the highest in ten months, though this followed earlier stagnation.[20] However, an October 2025 Delo poll showed support slipping again.[21]The public dissatisfaction with the government is lowering in the opinion polls, latest Mediana survey in January 2026 showed people supported the government with 36% and opposed it with 53%.[22]
Pre-election polls highlighted dissatisfaction, but since the undecided moved again towards the GS, they have recently risen in polls.[23] In the latest five surveys, the ruling Freedom scored 18.0 on average, trailing the opposition Slovenian Democratic Party at 22.6% on average. Overall trends from multiple pollsters show the coalition parties lagging behind opposition forces.
Observers have described the 2024 European Parliament election as a kind of referendum on the Golob government. SDS won the most seats, while Svoboda secured two, underlining mid-term unpopularity[24]
Contributing to public discontent are perceived policy missteps and inexperience in governance, notably in defence spending, energy policy, and internal disputes such as police staffing.[25] Trust in the Prime Minister Golob also declined, by early 2024, his personal rating was around 2.33/5, weighed down by coalition infighting and unmet reform promises in health and public administration. These issues have fueled calls for accountability and raised concerns over political stability, as reflected in polling data.
Date of the election
The next Slovenian parliamentary election is expected to take place on 22 March 2026, following an announcement by President Nataša Pirc Musar after consultations with parliamentary party leaders.[26] This aligns with the expiry of the four-year term of the National Assembly elected on 24 April 2022.[27]
Under the Constitution of the Republic of Slovenia and the National Assembly Elections Act (Zakon o volitvah v državni zbor), the President of Slovenia issues a decree calling parliamentary elections. Regular elections must be called no earlier than 135 days and no later than 60 days before the end of the Assembly’s term, and voting must occur no later than two months before its expiry.[28][29] Once the decree is published in the Official Gazette, formal electoral procedures begin, including the appointment of electoral bodies and updates to voter registration.[30]
Candidate lists must be submitted no later than 30 days before election day, with constituency electoral commissions verifying them within five days. Campaigning is regulated by the Elections and Referendum Campaign Act, which imposes a 48-hour electoral silence before polls open.[31][32]
If the National Assembly is dissolved early, such as following the failure to elect a Prime Minister or a successful vote of no confidence. The President must call a snap election within 60 days. The new term begins with the Assembly’s first session after the vote.
For the 2022 parliamentary election, the presidential decree was issued on 9 February 2022, setting the vote for 24 April 2022. The next parliamentary election is expected on 22 March 2026, with the date announced on 22 December 2025.[33]

Electoral system
Voting eligibility
Citizens of Slovenia who are at least 18 years old on election day are eligible to vote in elections to the National Assembly. Voting rights are universal and equal for all eligible citizens, regardless of social, ethnic, economic, or political affiliation. Individuals deprived of legal capacity by a court decision due to an inability to understand the purpose of elections may be excluded.[36][37]
Slovenian citizens residing abroad also retain voting rights. They may vote by post or at diplomatic and consular missions if they notify authorities within the prescribed deadlines.[38]
Voter registration is automatic and based on the central population register maintained by the Ministry of the Interior. Electoral rolls are compiled 15 days before election day and list voters by their permanent or last registered residence. Voters must cast their ballots at the polling station assigned to them unless eligible for special voting arrangements, such as OMNIA stations for individuals who have changed residence after the roll compilation.[30]
Voting takes place by secret ballot, and Slovenia does not require compulsory voting. Proxy voting is prohibited, except in cases of certified disability where legally defined assistance is permitted. In-person voting is held on election day from 7:00 to 19:00, while limited postal voting is available for hospitalized, detained, or temporarily absent voters who notify the State Election Commission in advance.[38]
Members of the Italian and Hungarian national communities possess additional voting rights, enabling them to elect their own representatives in dedicated single-member constituencies, in addition to voting for the remaining 88 deputies under the general system.[39]
Voting method and seat allocation
The National Assembly consists of 90 members. Of these, 88 are elected through open list proportional representation across eight constituencies, each electing 11 deputies. The remaining two seats are reserved for the Italian and Hungarian minority communities, elected using the Borda count method.[38]
Political parties or lists must surpass the national 4% electoral threshold to qualify for seat allocation. Within each constituency, seats are distributed using the Droop quota method. Voters may cast a preferential vote for a candidate on a party list, influencing the order of election within that list.
Remaining seats after constituency allocation are distributed at the national level using the D'Hondt method to maintain proportionality. Although Slovenia is divided into 88 electoral districts, not all districts necessarily elect a deputy, as multiple deputies may be elected from some districts depending on list performance.[40]
Gender quotas apply to candidate lists: at least 35% of candidates must be from each gender, except on three-candidate lists, which must include at least one candidate of each gender.[41][42]
As of October 2025, no amendments have yet been made to the proportional representation system, and the electoral framework remains unchanged from previous elections, despite a referendum approving the introduction of the preferential vote and ongoing public and political calls for a shift toward a two-round majority electoral system.

Campaign
New political parties
A number of new political parties emerged after the previous election. The first was Pavel Rupar's Voice of Pensioners, founded at its inaugural congress on 20 January 2024 by former SDS MP and Mayor of Tržič Pavel Rupar.[62] Ahead of the 2024 European Parliament election, the satirical party None of the Above was established under the leadership of activist Boris Žulj and former The Left MP Violeta Tomić.[63]
In the same year, former Minister of Foreign Affairs Anže Logar and 2022 presidental candidate began building his own political party, and following his departure from SDS, the party Democrats was formally founded.[64] Another new party, Karl Erjavec - Trust Party, led by four-time DeSUS Minister Karl Erjavec, was established soon afterwards.[65]
In early 2025, Marko Lotrič, President of the National Council, founded his party Focus of Marko Lotrič at an inaugural congress held at Brdo pri Kranju.[66] Later that year, DeSUS and Good State merged into the Party of Generations, led by former Minister of Labor Vlado Dimovski.[67] Former SDS MP Dejan Kaloh founded the party Suvereni, and a party of local lists, Community, was formed under the leadership of Mayor of Hrastnik Marko Funkl.[68]
The party Prerod - Party of Vladimir Prebilič was founded by former Mayor of Kočevje, 2022 presidental candidate and MEP Vladimir Prebilič,[69] and former The Left MP and another 2022 presidental candidate Miha Kordiš founded the socialist party We, Socialists![70] Two further projects were reported to be in the process of establishment, The Guard, linked to Catholic podcaster Alen Koman, and Volt Slovenia, as a Slovenian branch of the pan-European federalist movement Volt Europa.[71] Unlike Volt Slovenia, The Guard collected 200 signatures in time to establish a new political party, but failed to collect 100 signatures in each of the 8 electoral districts which would place the party on ballot.[72]
Pre-election cooperation
Pre-election alliances, mergers, and cooperation talks reshaped the landscape. Greens of Slovenia first called for the unification of green forces on a joint list.[73] The Left and Vesna – Green Party signed a pre-election agreement announcing a joint run in the election;[74] the cooperation was later formally confirmed by both parties in their internal bodies.[75][76] Talks about cooperation within this broader left-green axis also included the newly established localist party Community,[77] which is also a potential partner for Prerod - Party of Vladimir Prebilič, as was Party of Generations until they announced they would contest the election alone.[78] In addition, a public appeal on social media, with the liberal activist Jaša Jenull urging We, Socialists!, The Left, Vesna, and the Pirates to join forces and establish a United Progressive Front.[79]
On the centre-left, Prerod announced talks with the Social Democrats and related cooperation initiatives on the wider left.[80] However, Prerod later rejected the option of a joint list with SD and announced it would run independently, while leaving open further talks with the Party of Generations, although they later also rejected this option.[81] Prebilič also invited the leaders of several centre-left parties to a meeting intended to explore future cooperation, but the meeting did not take place because most invitees declined. Robert Golob invited SD, The Left, We, Socialists!, Pirates, Prerod, Vesna and unexpectedly Resni.ca for talks.[82] Resni.ca rejected the offer and Karl Erjavec claimed that his Karl Erjavec - Trust Party was not invited because it cannot be "cannibalized".[83]
In the centre, Greens of Slovenia and Party of Generations formed an alliance.[84]
On the centre-right, Concretely merged into Democrats,[85] and New Social Democracy, led by Andrej Magajna, later announced they were in talks about a united participation with Democrats,[86] which was later abandoned and New Social Democracy didn't file to participate in the election. New Slovenia and the Slovenian People’s Party opened talks on possible joint cooperation,[87] and NSi, SLS, and FOKUS each signed a separate declaration of intent and began coordinating a potential common list and the distribution of constituencies.[88][89]
On the nationalist side, Suvereni, United Slovenia Movement and Party of Slovenian People, MP Dejan Kaloh, Andrej Šiško and Ivan Bolfek, announced efforts to form a “sovereigntist–patriotic bloc” and referenced the political action SLOEXIT, proposing Slovenia’s withdrawal from the EU and a debate on leaving NATO.[90] Suvereni representatives later appeared at an event organised by Karl Erjavec - Trust Party, where cooperation and the formation of a new parliamentary group were discussed.[91] However, Suvereni subsequently decided to run independently rather than enter an electoral partnership with Karl Erjavec - Trust Party,[92] and United Slovenia Movement and Party of Slovenian People announced the forming of the Coaliton of the United Nations.[93]. After DVK rejected KZN's lists in three electoral districts, they withdrew from the election alltogether. Eventually, Suvereni decided to participate on the lists of the Trust Party.[94]
Among smaller actors, None of the Above and For a Healthy Society announced plans for a joint electoral list,[95] while Resni.ca was reportedly invited but declined.
Leadership changes
The Left were the first to change coordinators when they replaced Luka Mesec with Asta Vrečko in 2023.[96] Social Democrats were next when they elected Matjaž Han as party president,[97] after Tanja Fajon resigned after Litijska Affair.[98]
In 2025 several parties reaffirmed their leaders or elected new ones. Slovenian Democratic Party subsequently held its congress, at which Janez Janša was reconfirmed as party president and continuing his 33-year long streak at the helm of the party.[99] New Slovenia then followed as they elected Jernej Vrtovec as party president, succeeding Matej Tonin.[100]
Freedom reaffirmed Robert Golob as party president at its electoral congress.[101] The electoral congress of The Left followed, with current coordinator Asta Vrečko and former coordinator Luka Mesec confirmed as co-coordinators.[102] Vesna reconfirmed its co-leadership, with Urša Zgojznik and Uroš Macerl continuing as co-presidents.[103]

Interviews
The weekly programme Pogovori o prihodnosti was hosted by Tomaž Vesel. It aired on Mondays at 9:00 p.m. on TV Veseljak Golica, on Tuesdays at 8:30 p.m. on TV Aktual, and on Sundays at 9:30 p.m. on Radio 1 TV. The programme consisted of a series of 13 interviews with the leaders of political parties.[152]
In addition to its traditional large-scale election debates, POP TV also produced eight weekly interviews with party leaders as part of the 24UR news programme.[153] The paired interviews were conducted by journalists from the evening news team Žana Vertačnik, Anže Božič, Marko Gregorc, and Kaja Kobetič, as well as journalists from the 24ur.com portal, including Urša Zupan, Mirko Vorkapić, Natalija Švab, and Maruša Slana.[154]
As part of the evening current affairs programme Odmevi on TV SLO 1, profiles of political parties were broadcast between 3 and 16 February 2026. These profiles focused on parties polling above two percent in public opinion surveys ahead of the upcoming elections and consisted of nine approximately 15-minute interviews with party leaders, prepared and conducted by the programme’s hosts.[155]
In February 2026, the online portal Domovina aired the podcast Volitve 2026, hosted by Vida Petrovčič. The series presented centrist and centre-right political parties and focused on themes described as being “more oriented towards the survival, future, and development of Slovenia.”[156]
