STA, 24 April 2022 - Partial results after more than 80% of the votes have been counted suggest the Freedom Movement won the election with 33.7% of the vote, more than nine percentage points ahead of the ruling Democratic Party (SDS), which is at 24.5%. Three more parties have made it to parliament. Turnout was at a relatively high 62%.

The coalition New Slovenia currently ranks at 7% and the opposition Social Democrats (SD) and Left at 6.6% and exactly 4%, respectively.

Connecting Slovenia, an alliance of five parties, and the opposition Marjan Šarec List (LMŠ) are each about half a percentage point below the threshold.

Under the current calculations, the Freedom Movement would get 40 seats in the 90-member legislature, the SDS 29, the NSi 8, the SD 7 and the Left 4.

On balance, the centre-left would have 51 seats in parliament and the centre-right 37, with the two remaining seats reserved for the Hungarian and Italian minority.
