Kosovo election (Beta/Sasa Djordjevic)
In Kosovo’s Oct. 12 local elections, the Serb Ticket won a decisive majority in nine of the 10 municipalities with a predominantly Serb population.
The tenth mostly Serb municipality is Klokot, where a second round of elections will be necessary. In it, the Serb Ticket candidate for Klokot mayor, Bozidar Dejanovic, will be competing against a fellow Serb from the Serbian People’s Unity, Srecko Spasic.
A total of 57,786 Serbs voted in the elections, which is 3,600 more than in Kosovo’s February parliamentary vote.
With 63 percent of voter support, Serb Ticket won an overwhelming majority in Gracanica, as the Ticket did in all four Northern Kosovo municipalities – Kosovska Mitrovica, Zubin Potok, Zvecan and Leposavic – where it garnered between 69 and 80 percent of votes.
Kosovo prime minister designate Albin Kurit’s Self-Determination Movement sustained a sweeping loss in all municipalities but Gnjilane.
