Hlas Party Postpones Constitutional Amendment to Eliminate Single Electoral District

The Hlas party has decided not to proceed with its proposal to remove the provision for a single electoral district from Slovakia's constitution. The party, which is part of the ruling coalition alongside Smer-SD and SNS, failed to reach agreement with other political parties on this constitutional change. The single electoral district system, where all of Slovakia forms one constituency for parliamentary elections, has been a contentious political issue. Constitutional amendments in Slovakia require broad parliamentary support, making cross-party consensus essential for such changes to succeed.
