Estonia: Reform Party Ahead

With votes still being counted in the Estonian parliamentary elections, it looks probable that the centre-right Reform Party of current Estonian Prime Minister Andrus Ansip will form the next government, possibly in a coalition with Mart Laar’s Pro Patria and Res Publica alliance, which has put in a stronger performance than expected, Postimees reports.

Update: the Reform Party is now the official winner of the elections, with 27.7% of the vote. Edgar Savisaar’s Centre Party has 26.2, and the Pro Patria/Res Res Publica Alliance 17.8 per cent of the vote.
