	The Raw Story \| Estonian PM's party does best in vote, could dump coalition partner
		Estonian Prime Minister Andrus Ansip said Sunday he could revamp the ruling coalition after his Reform Party narrowly beat its partner in the outgoing government, the Centre Party, in a parliamentary election.
		Estonian President Toomas Hendrik Ilves has said he will give the right to form the next government to the party leader who gains most seats, and Ansip said he would launch coalition-building talks "immediately".

		The Centre Party’s support for any such candidate would be crucial as, without the votes of the Centre Party’s MPs, the other four parties would fall just short of the 68 votes required.
		Mr Savisaar exploited his party’s kingmaker position in the presidential vote to extract concessions from the People’s Union and in early August, the Centre Party and the People’s Union unveiled a political agreement between the two parties which is intended to continue until the end of the next parliament in 2011.
		In particular, the Centre Party leadership’s decision to prevent any of its MPs voting—rather than voting against Mrs Ergma and Mr Ilves – would seem to indicate that Mr Savisaar does not trust his own MPs (the presidential vote is a secret ballot).
