The 1993 Czech presidential election was held on 26 January 1993 to elect the first President of independent Czech Republic. The first election was done indirectly [1]by the members of the Czech Republic Parliament. Václav Havel was elected President.[2][3] The election was complicated only by attacks of Republicans against Havel and by phonecall saying there is a bomb in the Parliament.[4]
Candidates
- Václav Havel - former president of Czechoslovakia and a candidate of governing coalition (ODS, KDU-CSL and ODA).
- Marie Stiborová - leader of Left Bloc (coalition of parties KSCM and SDL).
- Miroslav Sládek - leader of SPR-RSC.

Parties in parliament
Results
All 200 Memebrs of parliament voted. Six of them submitted invalid ballots while 22 submitted empty ballots. Havel received 109 votes and thus won the election in the first round. Communist candidate Stiborová received only 49 votes and Republican candidate Sládek only 14 votes. This is the only presidential election in which the president was voted and elected only by Chamber of Deputies.[5] Havel received 109 votes. It was expected that Havel will receive much more votes because governing coalition had 105 votes and part of opposition promised support to Havel. It is very likely that he didn't receive some votes from Civic Democrats and Christian Democrats (from KDS). Havel was inaugurated on 2 February 1993 and became the first president of the Czech Republic.[6]
