The election of Members of Parliament and of councils shall be regulated by special Act. Any citizen who has attained 21 years of age and has permanent residency in the Slovak Republic is eligible to vote. Each party in Slovakia decides about its candidate list. Candidates are placed on the party list in order of preference. They do not need to be party members.
Voters select a party list.
They can either accept the top placed names or highlight four other names on the list. In case of applying the Hungarian model of elections in Slovakia it would result in much more decisive differences between parties in elections. Vice versa the Slovak model in Hungary would lessen the differences between the parties in general. The principal direction marking acts in both countries were the elections. All of them were exclusive.
