Bosnia and Herzegovina: The Quest for Change
There Will Be No Recount of the Votes in Mostar
Following the local election in Mostar in November there was clear evidence of fraud, votes being stolen. The Platform for Progress filed a grievance with the Bosnian Central Electoral Commission, making it aware of the situation and asking for a recount. However, the commission passed on the grievance to the Supreme Court of Bosnia, which turned down that request. This, as we hear from Mirsad Hadzikadic the president of the Platform, despite documentation of votes being stolen, and in the majority of the cases from Platform for Progress candidates. We spoke about the dilemma and what, if anything, can be done.
