Ljubljana, 11 September

Recent public opinion polls indicate that the Liberal Democracy of Slovenia party would garner the most votes if the election were held today, followed by the Slovenian democrats.

Pursuant to the elections act, the deadline for publishing polls in the media is seven days before election day.
