Michal Sirový wrote that the greatest impact of the municipal and Senate elections on national politics will be determined more by how the media reports on them than by the results themselves. According to him, the media has established an image of a total defeat for ANO, a success for Grolich, and STAN as the leader of the opposition. According to Sirový, ANO did not win; however, he labeled its decline as an expected result of elections amidst a term, not as a "slaughter." He stated that Grolich achieved an excellent result and advanced from the first round, but benefited from not having competition from the rest of the opposition in his Senate district. Sirový also reminded that Grolich led the party with a three percent support. He described the strengthening of STAN in municipalities and the defense of its positions in the Senate as the most interesting real story. According to him, the party surpassed ODS in both results and public perception, becoming the leader of the opposition. Sirový compared this to the previous four-year period when the Pirates and ODS vied for this position. The impact of this change, he believes, will be shown by time. Sirový also mentioned that he is curious whether Andrej Babiš will respond to this image with greater changes that could also lead to mistakes, or if he will realize that, in his opinion, he lost primarily in media headlines, not in the elections. #volby #politika #ČeskáRepublika (translated)

Roman Kolář described it as "mad" that, according to him, the government has built an image on the claim that Petr Fiala's cabinet was welcoming to migrants, even though with Vít Rakušan it passed one of the strictest asylum laws in Europe. He wrote that representatives of the current Babiš government now want to increase quotas for economic migrants from culturally distant countries while driving away war refugees from culturally closer environments. He added that these refugees, in his opinion, bring benefits to the Czech Republic amounting to billions of crowns, although they do not have to. He also criticized the opposition, which, in his view, had failed to effectively remind the government of this change in attitude. #politika #imigrace #vláda (translated)
David Rangl published a political satire in the style of "Hey people," in which he mocked the reactions to the Senate elections. Its fictional narrator claimed that his party objectively won the elections, even though it did not gain any senators according to the text. He attributed the result to voters, the media, and artists, referencing Patrik Nacher and Klempíř. In a passage about Cheb, Rangl wrote that Sandra Tsoukernik received 27 percent in the first round and almost 29 percent in the second, while Plevný had 71 percent according to the text. The satirical narrator emphasized the alleged growth of support and recalled seven concerts by Michal David. Rangl also parodied the narrator's remarks about Karviná and Orlová, Karel's trip to India, where he was supposed to have 25 meetings, and the meeting with Zelensky in Brussels. He labeled the Senate as unnecessary and wrote that the party would first win it, then abolish it, and possibly re-establish it. In conclusion, he stated that it was political satire and that readers should wait for the real "Hey people." #volby #politika #českárepublika (translated)
