After 7 additional inconclusive rounds of voting on 24 October, Slovenia's delegation told the General Assembly that while it believed Slovenia would be a good addition for the Security Council, it did not approve of the way in which the election was being held and was withdrawing its candidacy as the "will of the Assembly was clear".
Setelah tujuh putaran pemungutan suara inkonklusif pada 24 Oktober, delegasi Slovenia menyatakan kepada Majelis bahwa Slovenia dapat menjadi tambahan anggota Dewan Keamanan, bila tidak menyetujui cara diadakannya pemilu tersebut dan menarik pencalonannya sebagai "kehendak Majelis sudah jelas".
