Presidential election results in Czechia 2023

The Czech presidential election took place in January 2023 with the incumbent Miloš Zeman not being eligible to run for a third consecutive time due to constitutional restrictions. In the first round, former Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, Petr Pavel, had the highest share of votes at 35.4 percent. In second place finished the former Prime Minister Andrej Babiš who won 34.99 percent of the vote. In the second round of votes, after the other six candidates were eliminated, Pavel won a majority of votes against Babiš, thus becoming the fourth Czech president, assuming office in March 2023.
