Lidovce and Čunk in the Zlín Region were defeated by YES

The YES movement eventually maintained a close lead, losing 19.08 percent of the vote and can already think about the composition of the regional coalition.

For Čunek, this is a crushing loss. He built the campaign on the construction of a new regional hospital for billions of crowns.

“We thought we would win, but it can be seen that YES is pulling. We were worse, there is nothing we can do. I couldn’t explain the hospital, “Čunek told reporters at the Zlín People’s Staff.

Even before the election, he claimed that it would be a referendum on the construction of a new hospital. The People’s Party is finally second with 18.62 percent.

In the evening, the leader ANO Holiš and his team started negotiations with the ODS, which has 10 percent. In reality, a coalition is emerging, which is supposed to “screw up” the current advocates of the construction of a new hospital – KDU-ČSL and STAN.

The Zlín Region will probably be ruled by four coalitions of YES, Pirates, ODS and CSSD. This variant was also indicated by the leader of the victorious movement. “We believed in victory, but it is tight. It is a very real group. But we are only at the beginning of the negotiations, “Holiš told Práva.

He intends to meet with all political entities that have joined the Zlín Regional Council.

The ANO movement will win nine positions in the 45-member regional council, and KDU-ČSL will also receive nine. The third Czech Pirate Party has six mandates, as does the fourth STAN. The ODS will have five representatives, the CSSD four. After three representatives, the SPD and the Tricolor-Private-Independent coalition gain.
