The text reads: "For 20 years they promised and they stole" (meaning the capitalist politicians of Slovakia), "The Communists provided for the people", "Heart in the right place". The Communist party never takes more than one or two percent of the total vote in Slovakia, which is low compared to the results of the Communist party of the Czech republic which typically takes about 15% of the vote. This difference has developed since 1993 because in the Czech Republic the Communists receive protest votes from angry voters, poor pensioners and votes from Czech nationalists, while in Slovakia parties such as the SNS dominate this part of the electorate, leaving no room for the Communists to gather support.
