Election day in Bosnia and Herzegovina was marked by difficulties with the new voting system and lower turnout in some cities
Polling stations throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina in the general elections were closed at 19:00, which ended the regular part of voting in the elections. Election day was marked by difficulties with the new voting system. In several polling stations where the opening was delayed, voting will be extended.
Citizens in Bosnia and Herzegovina elected the government at almost all levels. 75 parties, 29 coalitions and four independent candidates are competing for the votes of more than 3,4 million voters.
Votes were cast for three members of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, representatives of the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the House of Representatives of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the president and two vice-presidents of the Republic of Srpska, representatives of the National Assembly of the RS, as well as representatives of the assemblies of ten cantons of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Biometric voter identification, ballot scanners and electronic transmission of results were used for the first time in the general elections, which is why problems were noted immediately at the beginning of voting, reports RTRS.
By 5:00 p.m., 1.097.589 voters or 32,20 percent had voted at regular polling stations in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Central Election Commission announced.
37,28 percent voted in the Republika Srpska, and 30,03 percent in the FBiH.
In some cities of the Republika Srpska, a lower turnout was recorded compared to 2022.
