AlHijjah 21, 1434, Oct 26, 2013, SPA -- Czech Social Democrats won most votes in a parliamentary election, partial results showed on Saturday, but their leader predicted tough talks on forming a new coalition government after new protest parties performed well, Reuters reported. The centre-left, pro-European Union Social Democrats led by ex-finance minister Bohuslav Sobotka won about 22 percent of the vote, based on the results of two thirds of Czech polling stations, well below the 30 percent they had been targeting. A newly formed anti-graft protest movement ANO (Yes) led by a business tycoon took second spot with about 19 percent, ahead of the Communists on 16 percent, the partial results showed. Four other parties - including the two centre-right parties whose scandal-tainted coalition collapsed in June - also seemed set to cross the 5 percent threshold to enter parliament. -- SPA 18:51 LOCAL TIME 15:51 GMT تغريد
