Answer & Solution
Option: B
Explanation :Presidential elections were held in Slovakia in March 2019. Incumbent President Andrej Kiska did not run for a second term. Fifteen candidates contested the first round on 16 March, of which two later formally withdrew their bids before voting took place, but their names still had to remain on the ballot papers. Zuzana Caputova of the Progressive Slovakia party finished ahead of the other candidates.
In the second round on 30 March, Caputova was elected with 58.4% of the vote to Sefcovic’s 41.6%. She became the first woman to be elected to the presidency and became Slovakia’s youngest-ever president upon her inauguration which took place on 15 June 2019.
