Number of candidates not to affect presidential vote, pundits say

Ljubljana, 2 October - Nine candidates are standing in the 2017 presidential election, quite a large number for Slovenia. However, journalists Tanja Starič and Peter Jančič do not believe the number as such will affect voters' decisions. Starič believes it is more important what the candidates represent, while Jančič says their campaigns will play the key role.
