The second direct presidential election in the history of the Czech Republic had the same winner as the first, but differed from it in many respects. Several months before the election proper, it was clear who would win the first round and who’d be his challenger in the second. Unsurprisingly, these expectations proved to be correct, though the second round was more balanced than it had been in the previous election. This book provides a summary of the most important moments in the process that led President Zeman to re-election. It succinctly summarises the strong and weak points of his first presidency, and provides a comprehensive overview of the second election. Readers will learn about candidate nominations, the candidates’ campaigns, opinion polls, the views of the candidates and the election results, displayed synoptically using instruments of electoral geography.
