Progressive Slovakia was founded in 2017 before electing Ivan Štefunko as their Party Chairman. At the 2019 Presidential elections Zuzana Čaputová was Progressive Slovakia’s candidate and won a two-round vote with nearly 60% giving a clear counterweight to the right-wing populists. With this result she becomes the first female President in the history of Slovakia. It was a close call at the latest party leader elections between incumbent leader Michal Truban and Irena Biháriová, the latter won with 5 votes difference. As of June 2020, she is elected Chairman of the Party Assembly.
