Czech Republic Parliamentary Elections 2017
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Over the next two days, the typical daily routine of Czech citizens will be interrupted for a very important reason: today and tomorrow, citizens go to the polls to elect a new government. Soon after, the country will have elected a new Chamber of Deputies – a 200-seat house – as well as a new Prime Minister. Over the next four years, the Prime Minister and members of Parliament will work together, shaping the future of the Czech Republic.
Today’s Doodle celebrates the tradition of civic engagement. Happy voting!
