Current South Moravian governor and KDU-ČSL chairman Jan Grolich is one of bookmakers' biggest favorites in this year's Senate elections. Betting odds give him an almost certain chance of winning. According to available data, his pre-election campaign also plays a significant role. ekonomickydenik.cz ↗
Grolich is running at a time when part of the upper house of the Czech Parliament is being renewed. The elections will take place on Friday, October 9, and Saturday, October 10. If no candidate receives an absolute majority of votes, a second round scheduled a week later will decide the outcome.
Besides Grolich, bookmakers also favor several current senators who are defending their mandates. In some districts, a close contest is therefore expected, and the result may depend on how votes are distributed among multiple candidates. Only two of them can advance to the second round. respekt.cz ↗
This year's elections will be decided in 27 senatorial districts. In the first round, voters choose only one candidate and cannot split their vote among several people. If candidates receive an equal number of votes, the rules state that a drawing of lots may decide advancement to the second round. reflex.cz ↗
The election result will show whether the pre-election estimates and betting odds come true. Grolich's potential success would also mean his move from leading the South Moravian Region to national politics in the upper house of Parliament.
