Pahor Positively Surprised with Exit Poll Results

Ljubljana, 4 December - Outgoing PM Borut Pahor labelled the result of his Social Democrats (SD) better than expected as partial results showed his party winning over 10% of the vote in Sunday's general election. At the beginning of the election campaign, it seemed that the SD would not even make it to parliament, he noted.
