Czech parliamentary election, 20-21 October 2017

Here is the official results page:

Almost 100% counted.

Turnout: 60.8% (+1.3)

As Austria the week before, the Czechs also shifted strongly to the Right.

From what I understand, some 70% voted for Center-Right parties (which would be even more than the 58% in Germany and 63% in Austria).

Currently, I have:

71% Right (ANO, TOP09, ODS, SPD, STAN, KDU-CSL, Svobodni, Realists, ROZUMNI)
27% Left (Pirates, Social Dems, Communists, Greens)
  2% Others (with less than 0.5% each)

Babis says he is reaching out to all the party leaders of the new parliament, and hopes a new government can be in place quickly. He also underlines that ANO is a pro-European party, and that Czechia will remain a solid part of EU and NATO. But he says the idea of a two-speed EU and new integration plans should stop.

So he's saying the same things that Kurz said after the election ...

71% Right (ANO, TOP09, ODS, SPD, STAN, KDU-CSL, Svobodni, Realists, ROZUMNI)
27% Left (Pirates, Social Dems, Communists, Greens)
  2% Others (with less than 0.5% each)

Sorry, but putting KDU-CSL, STAN or TOP in the same basket as SPD is stupid.

They are all Right-wingers though. Some more, some less.
