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.

Rudolf Czegledi of the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians was chosen as mayor after the election.[105]
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.

Mladomir Sretenović of the Democratic Party was chosen as mayor after the election. The Movement for the Development of Dragačevo list boycotted the inaugural session of the assembly.[212] When the Democratic Party split in early 2014, Sretenović sided with Boris Tadić's breakaway New Democratic Party (later renamed as the Social Democratic Party).[213] The local government was dissolved and new elections were held in 2014.
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.
