Authorities in central Slovakia have postponed the inauguration of far-right nationalist Marian Kotleba as governor after locals protested against his election.
Since the weekend's poll a nightly candlelight vigil has been held mainly by students at a museum which commemorates Slovakia's fight against fascism.
Marek Šimon was one of those protesting in the region of Banská Bystrica:
"Firstly everybody was surprised that something like this can happen in the 21st century. But now everybody has woken up. We have to deal with it somehow."
Kotleba who is leader of "Our Slovakia" party won with over 55 percent of the vote. He has a history of making racist statements and analysts think his success was fuelled by anti-Roma sentiment.
