    Polls close at 14:00 on the second day (§ 2(2) Act 88/2024 Sb.). In January Czechia is on CET (UTC+1), so that is 13:00 UTC on Sat 15 Jan 2028. The ČSÚ publishes precinct results live on volby.gov.cz (§ 12(1)(j)). 2023: ČT's Události of Sat 14 Jan 2023, the second polling day of round one, reported which two candidates had advanced.

    estimate
    After round one the SVK either declares the overall result by a notice in the Collection of Laws, if a candidate won a majority of valid votes (§§ 54, 55(a), 57 Act 275/2012 Sb.; § 8(e) Act 88/2024 Sb.), or declares the round-one result by publishing its record on the Ministry of the Interior's election website (§ 55(b)). No statutory deadline: the MV 2023 timetable says only "po zjištění výsledku volby v I. kole". 2013 precedent: the SVK's round-one declaration is on mv.gov.cz; its date was not found. The window is an ESTIMATE: it opens Mon 17 Jan, CET, and closes at the end of Tue 25 Jan, CET, before the runoff candidate list is published (24 hours before polling, § 56(4)). Challenges go to the Supreme Administrative Court within 7 days of the SVK's declaration of the overall result (§ 66(1)).
