2012 Serbian local elections

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Local elections in Serbia were held on 6 May 2012.[1] Pursuant to the Constitution of Serbia, the parliamentary Speaker (at the time Slavica Đukić Dejanović from SPS) signed on 13 March 2012 the Decision on calling the elections for councilors of municipal assemblies, town assemblies and the Belgrade City Assembly for 6 May 2012, with the exception of: the councilors of the municipal assemblies of Aranđelovac, Bor, Vrbas, Vrnjačka Banja, Knjaževac, Kovin, Kosjerić, Kosovska Mitrovica, Leposavić, Negotin, Novo Brdo, Odžaci, Peć, Prijepolje and Ruma and councilors of the Priština Town Assembly, which have already had extraordinary elections in the period from 2008 to 2012, while for councilors of the municipal assembly of Kula, the elections were already called earlier on 29 February 2012.[2]

Parties were required to cross a five per cent electoral threshold (of all votes, not only of valid votes), although this requirement was waived for parties representing national minority communities.

In line with United Nations SC Resolution 1244, the Government of the Republic of Serbia will, in cooperation with UNMIK, implement all actions necessary for the elections on the territory of the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija.[3]

Some EU member states officials expressed their disagreement over the decisions to call local elections for municipalities in Kosovo and Metohija.[4] Local elections will be observed by a delegation of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe.

Municipalities of Belgrade

[edit]

Elections were held in fifteen of Belgrade's seventeen constituent municipalities. The exceptions were Voždovac and Zemun, where municipal elections were at the time held on different four-year cycles.

The elections generally were a victory for the Democratic Party, which claimed the mayoralties in nine of the fifteen participating municipalities. The Democratic Party also participated in grand coalition governments with the Progressives and Socialists in two other jurisdictions: Lazarevac (where the mayor was chosen from the ranks of the Socialists) and Rakovica (where the mayor was from the Progressives).

The Progressives also won the mayoralty in Grocka and formed a coalition in Surčin wherein a member of the Socialists was chosen as mayor. The United Regions of Serbia claimed the mayoralty in Obrenovac, and Živorad Milosavljević's independent list won its third consecutive victory in Sopot.

Vojvodina

[edit]
Results of 2012 local elections in Vojvodina by municipality

Central Banat District

[edit]

Local elections were held in the one city (Zrenjanin) and all four municipalities in the Central Banat District. The Progressives won the city election in Zrenjanin and remained in power for the full term. The Democrats finished first in three of the municipalities, with the Liberal Democrats winning the other. There were many changes in government in the latter jurisdictions over the next four years. The Progressives held the mayoralties in two of these communities by the 2016 election, with the League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina holding another; the fourth mayor was an independent who later joined the Progressives.

Incumbent mayor Pera Milankov of the Democratic Party was confirmed for a new term in office after the election.[62] He was arrested in October 2012 on suspicion of giving and accepting bribes and was replaced by Mile Todorov of the Socialist Party, who formed a coalition government with the Progressives and other parties on 20 November 2012.[63][64] The Socialist-Progressive alliance subsequently broke down, and on 31 May 2013 Todorov was replaced by Danica Stričević of the Progressives, who formed an administration in alliance with the United Regions of Serbia (which had gained members by defections).[65]

After spending a year in custody, Pera Milankov (by this time an independent) was again chosen as mayor on 28 December 2013 at the head of a new governing alliance that included the Democratic Party, the Socialists, and the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians.[66] Shortly after the 2016 elections, Milankov joined the Progressive Party.[67]

Rudolf Czegledi of the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians was chosen as mayor after the election.[106]

South Bačka District

[edit]

Local elections were held in the one city (Novi Sad) and ten of the eleven separate municipalities of the South Bačka District. The exception was Vrbas, which was on a different four-year electoral cycle at the time.

The City of Novi Sad comprises two municipalities (the City municipality of Novi Sad and Petrovaradin), although their powers are very limited relative to the city government. Unlike Belgrade, Niš, and Vranje, Novi Sad does not have directly elected municipal assemblies.

Most of the local elections in South Bačka did not produce clear winners. The Democratic Party's lists technically won plurality victories in eight of the eleven jurisdictions that held elections, but they were only able to claim the mayoralties in Novi Sad (temporarily) and five other municipalities (including two where the party actually lost the popular vote). Progressive Party candidates won the mayoralties in three other municipalities, and candidates of the Socialist Party were chosen as mayor in Bačka Palanka and Srbobran.

[edit]

Local elections were held in the two cities (Pančevo and Vršac) and five of the six other municipalities of the South Banat District. The exception was Kovin, where the previous election had been held in 2009 and the next election was held in 2013.

The Serbian Progressive Party and the Socialist Party of Serbia formed a coalition government, and a representative of the Socialists was initially chosen as mayor. The Democratic Party won and formed government in four of the other six jurisdictions that held elections. Independent lists won and formed government in Vršac and Opovo; in the latter case, the list was aligned with the Democratic Party.

By the time of the 2016 elections, the Progressive Party had come to power in all jurisdictions in South Banat except for Plandište.

Pomoravlje District

[edit]

Local elections were held in the one city (Jagodina) and all five other municipalities of the Pomoravlje District. United Serbia won a majority victory in its home base of Jagodina in an alliance with the Socialist Party of Serbia. The Democratic Party won the elections and formed government in Despotovac, Paraćin, and Svilajnac, although by the end of the term it only remained in power in Paraćin. The Serbian Progressive Party and the Socialists formed a new government in Despotovac in 2013, and the Democratic Party in Svilajnac later formed his own political movement.

The Progressives won the election in Ćuprija and, after an initial period of instability, formed government in the community. A member of the Socialist Party became the mayor in Rekovac following an inconclusive election in that municipality.
