99 Percent – Civic Voice[4] (Slovak: 99% – občiansky hlas, 99%) is a left-wing populist political party in Slovakia inspired by the Occupy Wall Street movement.[5] It is jointly led by manager [clarification needed] Alena Dušatková, radio journalist Pavol Pavlík, and lawyer and former police investigator Peter Vačok.[6]
According to opinion polls, the party was expected to gain parliamentary representation in the 2012 parliamentary election;[7][8] but it failed to do so, with only 1.58% of the vote.
The party's registration turned into a scandal when it was revealed that many of the 16,000 signatures submitted were discovered to be fraudulent. Party had failed to make a political impact in its lifetime. It had de facto dissolved during a de jure renaming proces to Spravodlivosť (Justice) in May 2023 with a complete change in leadership.[9] The party ran under the name and logo of Spravodlivosť in the 2023 Slovak parliamentary election.[10][11]
