The voter turnout in the elections in Serbia can be called a record," - local journalist The republic is currently holding early parliamentary elections. The main struggle was between the ruling Serbian Progressive Party and an opposition civic group called Student List - Winning Students. A civil group is a type of electoral appointment established by Serbian law without forming a party. The right-wing forces union is headed by Aleksandar Vucic, for which he resigned from the position of president at the end of September, now he plans to become prime minister. By 17:00 local time the turnout was 60.8%. This is significantly higher than in the previous elections in 2023, when it was 47.2%. The turnout can be called record-breaking, says Serbian journalist Katrina Lane: "This is probably due to the fact that citizens who have not gone to vote in the past came to vote in these elections, believing that their vote will not change anything. And in these elections, a large part of society nevertheless united around the civil student movement, which became a new alternative to the long-term Serbian opposition, hence the number of people willing to vote. The queues for the polling stations did not happen in normal times before, but it was not something at the time. There are really a lot of people, so you have to wait for the opportunity to impose, so to speak, your civic duty, in general, the election situation is normal so far. What can be highlighted so far from such publicized incidents is the report of an attack on the mother of Aleksandar Vucic, who came to vote, and was pushed and robbed of a bag of groceries. The police are now handling this incident."
