Manifesto of the biggest losers: in the Ljubljana SD, they blame Han for their loss

The article discusses the poor performance of the Slovenian Democratic Party (SD) in the recent municipal elections in Ljubljana, where they failed to secure any mandates despite receiving votes in smaller towns like Laško. The article highlights that while SD leader Matjaž Han performed well in his home district of Laško, he did not campaign in Ljubljana, leading to criticism within the party. It also notes that left-leaning parties such as Sloboda, SD, and Left have struggled to maintain support compared to four years ago, losing thousands of votes. The piece further points out that SD has low visibility among younger voters and on social media platforms, contrasting sharply with other parties like SDS and Resnica, which have stronger online presences.
