Bosnia and Herzegovina:  The Quest for Change


The Door Has Been Opened Again to the Idea of Electronic Voting in Bosnia and Herzegovina

August 12, 2021

The new High Representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina, William Schmidt, has indicated on more than one occasion the need for electronic voting in the country. These words bring about cautious optimism to the president of the Platform for Progress, Mirsad Hadžikadić. During his run for the presidency in 2018, Hadžikadić stressed the need for electronic voting in order to combat the inherent corruption that currently exists within the voting system. Hadžikadić hopes to be able to meet with Schmidt to outline the Platform’s stance on electronic voting and the dire need for it to become a reality. We recently spoke about what all of this could mean for the future of politics in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
