Zuzana Caputova becomes Slovakia's first female president

Anti-corruption candidate #ZuzanaCaputova has won #Slovakia's presidential election, making her the country's first female head of state. Ms Caputova, who has almost no political experience, defeated high-profile diplomat Maros Sefcovic from the governing party in a second round run-off vote.

She framed the election as a struggle between good and evil. The election follows the murder of an investigative journalist last year. #JanKuciak was looking into links between politicians and organised crime when he was shot alongside his fiancée in February 2018. Ms Caputova cited Mr Kuciak's death as one of the reasons she decided to run for president, which is a largely ceremonial role.

With almost all votes counted, she has won about 58% to Mr Sefcovic's 42%.
