The Communist Party of Greece and one ND MP voted "present". Stephanopoulos would go on to be re-elected in 2000 as a joint candidate of ND and PASOK, the first time in the history of the Third Hellenic Republic that the ruling party and the main opposition party both supported the same candidate, as well as the first time that an incumbent President was re-elected.
