Presidential elections were held in Slovakia in March and April 2024. Incumbent president Zuzana Čaputová announced in June 2023 that she would not run for a second term.[1]
In the first round held on 23 March, Ivan Korčok led with 42.5% of the votes followed by Peter Pellegrini with 37%. As no candidate received a majority, a runoff was scheduled between the two on 6 April.[2][3] However, in the second round, Pellegrini defeated Korčok with 53.1% of the vote. He was sworn in as president on 15 June.[4]
The election was widely regarded as a win for Slovakia's prime minister Robert Fico who saw his ally elected as President.
