Pro-Russian faces liberal in knife-edge Czech presidential vote

Pro-Russian faces liberal in knife-edge Czech presidential voteCzechs went to the polls Friday at the start of a two-day presidential run-off pitting pro-Russian populist incumbent Milos Zeman against liberal pro-European rival Jiri Drahos, in a tight race that promises to go down to the wire. A pre-vote poll by the Kantar TNS and Median agencies showed the two candidates neck-and-neck, with the divisive 73-year-old ex-communist Zeman credited with 45.5 percent of the vote against 45 percent for the academic Drahos. Bookmakers, however, give veteran politician Zeman the edge.
