Slovenia is a European Parliament constituency for elections in the European Union covering the member state of Slovenia.
It is currently represented by nine Members of the European Parliament.
As Slovenia had only joined the European Union earlier that month, it was the first European election held in that state.
The biggest surprise was the victory of the New Slovenia party over the Liberal Democracy of Slovenia and the defeat of the Slovene People's Party, which did not win a seat.
The parties on the right of centre that form the opposition in the Slovenian national parliament won this election.
