Bosnia and Herzegovina: The Quest for Change

Bosnia and Herzegovina:  The Quest for Change


Election Day is Just One Day Away For Mirsad Hadzikadic in His Bid To Become President of Bosnia and Herzegovina

October 06, 2018

It’s a cool crisp morning here in Sarajevo as the light fog that had gripped the city in the early morning hours slowly burns away as the sun greets this part of the world on its daily journey.  The presidential election is just one day away.  Today, October 6, is considered a quiet day, as no official campaigning is allowed by any of the candidates.  However that does not keep them from being seen in public.  Mirsad will take advantage of that opportunity hoping to get out and about around the city to meet people as they tend to their daily activities.  A man who was quite unfamiliar to the residents here back in May now can’t go out into public without being stopped by those wanting to shake his hand, have a picture taken or discuss their concerns about the current state of things in Bosnia and Herzegovina and what will he do to try and change that.  Tomorrow, October 7, will be unlike any other election day that Mirsad has experienced in his life.  For on this day his name will appear on the ballot as one of six candidates running for the Bosniak seat on the presidential council.  Following his last campaign rally in nearby Zenica on Thursday night we spoke about his plans for election day.
