Members of the Slovenian parliament on Wednesday in Ljubljana failed to elect Zoran Jankovic as prime minister designate. Jankovic, whose party won a majority in the parliamentary election held in late 2011, saw 42 MPs vote in favor of his election - fewer votes than he counted on ahead of the session today. Slovenian MPs reject candidate for PM Two parties formally supported Jankovic's bid: the Social Democrats and DESUS, which should have resulted in 44 "yes" votes. But MPs cast their ballots according to their wishes, rather than respecting a deal reached between the parties. Jankovic commented on the results of the vote by saying, "That's the will of the deputies. I accept it as such." Zoran Jakovic is the first candidate for prime minister, given the mandate by the country's president, that was rejected by parliament. Slovenian President Danilo Turk will now once again hold consultations with parliamentary groups and decide in the next two weeks whether to once again give the mandate to Jankovic, or to another candidate. Janez Jansa could be given a chance to put together the country's new government. As things stand now, Jansa, whose party ranked second in the elections, could count on 44 MP votes. Many in Slovenia believe that a third candidate could appear in the meanwhile and win the trust of both political camps in Slovenia's parliament. Zoran B92
