The polling stations for the referendum will be open between 7 a.m.
and 7 p.m., and according to some estimates, three fourths of the
eligible voters are expected to go to the polls.
According to last opinion polls, which were conducted until the
media blackout started at midnight on Friday ahead of the
referendum, it is likely that 80 percent of voters will be in favour
of Slovenia's entry into the EU, while those for the entry into the
alliance accounted for 55 percent or respondents.
