Slovenians pick president, no clear winner in sight

Voters in Slovenia on Sunday cast ballots to elect a new president of the European Union nation, with three main contenders leading the race but no clear winner in sight.
Though the presidency is largely ceremonial in Slovenia, Sunday's vote is still seen as a test for its liberal government amid a soaring crisis.
A populist opposition politician has led pre-election polls but none of the contenders appears set to win more than half of the ballots.
This means a runoff vote likely will be held in three weeks featuring the two best-placed candidates.Slovenia's 1.7 million eligible voters will eventually pick a successor to incumbent Borut Pahor.He has served two full five-year terms and was banned from running for a third.
