Local elections were held in Serbia on 11 May 2008, concurrently with the 2008 Serbian parliamentary election and the 2008 Vojvodina provincial election. A re-vote was held at three poling stations in Belgrade on 18 May 2008 due to irregularities in the voting process.[1]
Background
[edit]According to the Constitutional Law adopted by the National Assembly on 30 September 2006 that proclaimed the new constitution, the parliamentary Speaker (at that time Oliver Dulić from DS) had to schedule the elections for local administrative units by 31 December 2007.[2] He scheduled them on 2007-12-29.[3] Following the official breakdown of the government on 8 March 2008, early parliamentary elections were held on the same date.
Negotiations between the ruling parties, the President's DS and the Premier's DSS, were trying to enact a compromise on the date of the election. Tadić's Democratic Party wanted to respect the constitutional law, wanting to schedule the election by the end of year and hold it in March 2008, which is DSS's demand because of the solution of the status of Kosovo. G17 Plus wanted the Mayors and municipal Presidents to be elected directly as in the past, but the Democratic Party wanted them to be elected by the local parliaments.
Four laws necessary for the local elections (on territorial organisation, the capital, local elections and local self-government) were passed before the elections.
There were some notable changes from the previous local electoral cycle in 2004:
- the direct election of mayors was eliminated, and mayors were instead chosen by elected members of the assemblies;
- the electoral threshold was increased from three to five per cent (of all votes, not only of valid votes);
- all assembly mandates were awarded to candidates on successful lists at the discretion of the sponsoring parties or coalitions, irrespective of numerical order.[4]
In areas geographically comprising Sandžak, the Sandžak Democratic Party and Democratic Party ran in local elections together. The European Coalition of DS, G17+ and SPO ran in all Municipalities and Cities, except in Niš, where G17+ had been part of ruling coalition for the last years and where DS was running against them.[5] The "Serb List" political of SRS, DSS, NS, SPS and several nationalist civic groups and organizations had been formed and ran in most of Vojvodina locally.
My Serbia of Branislav Lečić ran individually in local elections. Mayor of Novi Sad and former Radical Maja Gojković ran in the City with her civic group "For Our Novi Sad".
Kosovo
[edit]According to UNMIK practice, Serbian national referendums and elections for Parliament and President were allowed in Kosovo, but local elections are organized separately by UNMIK and the PISG. Despite all of this Serbia accomplished the local elections in Kosovo 2008 that were not recognized by UNMIK.
Repeat elections
[edit]The municipalities of Knjaževac, Prijepolje, Ruma, and Vrnjačka Banja were not able to form governments after the election. Repeat elections were held in these municipalities on 9 November 2008.[6]

The City of Belgrade election, like the concurrent national assembly election, did not initially produce a clear winner. Representatives of the Radical Party, the Democratic Party of Serbia–New Serbia alliance, and the alliance around the Socialist Party held discussions about forming government; had these parties finalized an agreement, Aleksandar Vučić of the Radical Party would have become mayor.[8]
Ultimately, however, For a European Serbia formed a coalition government with the alliance around the Socialist Party. The Liberal Democratic Party was not a part of the coalition but offered outside support. Dragan Đilas of the Democratic Party became mayor and Milan Krkobabić of the Party of United Pensioners of Serbia (aligned with the Socialist Party) became deputy mayor.[9]
Branislav Belić served as mayor on an interim basis from July to August 2008, before Đilas was sworn in.
Municipalities of Belgrade
[edit]Elections were held in all seventeen of Belgrade's constituent municipalities in 2008. The elections were generally a victory for the For a European Serbia alliance led by the Democratic Party, which ultimately won the mayor's office in twelve municipalities. The Democratic Party of Serbia did not finish in first place in any municipalities, but party representatives became mayors in three municipalities: Grocka and Mladenovac in alliance with the Democratic Party, and Lazarevac in alliance with the Radical Party. The Radicals held the mayoralty in their historical stronghold of Zemun, and former Socialist Živorad Milosavljević's independent list retained power in Sopot.
This was the last time the Radical Party was the dominant party in any municipal government in Belgrade. The party split later in the year, and the breakaway Serbian Progressive Party ultimately superseded the Radicals in popular support.
Many of the governing coalitions formed after the election were unstable, and new elections were held in the municipalities of Voždovac and Zemun in 2009.

Zoltán Pék of the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians was chosen as mayor after the election.[99] He remained in this role until February 2010, when shifting political alliances allowed the Democratic Party to form a new administration with Anikó Širková as mayor.[100]
South Bačka District
[edit]Local elections were held in the one city (Novi Sad) and all eleven separate municipalities in the South Bačka District.
The City of Novi Sad comprises two municipalities (the City municipality of Novi Sad and Petrovaradin), although their powers are very limited relative to the city government. Unlike Belgrade, Niš, and Vranje, Novi Sad does not have directly elected municipal assemblies.
The Radical Party finished in first place in six municipalities, although the party's hold on power in these areas was not strong. The Radicals initially formed government in four of the six municipalities where they won the popular vote, but they soon lost power in all four, weakened by internal divisions and by the loss of the Socialist Party as a coalition partner. (The Radicals returned to power in Bačka Palanka in 2010 and remained in office there until 2012. They have not led a local government in the district since that time.)
By the end of 2008, members of the Democratic Party held the mayoralties in Novi Sad and eight other jurisdictions. Representatives of different parties in the Hungarian Coalition claimed the mayoralties in Bečej and Temerin, and an independent list broadly aligned with the Democratic Party won the election in Srbobran.

Dragiša Đorđević of the Radical Party was chosen as mayor after the election, in a coalition with the alliances around the Socialist Party and the Democratic Party of Serbia.[143] In November 2008, both of these groups left the Radicals and formed a new coalition led by the Democratic Party, with Branko Stajić as mayor.[144]
Srem District
[edit]Local elections were held in the one city (Sremska Mitrovica) and all six other municipalities of the Srem District. The Democratic Party won the popular vote in Sremska Mitrovica; although the Democratic Party of Serbia and Serbian Radical Party briefly formed a local administration, a new alliance of the Democratic Party and Democratic Party of Serbia came to power shortly thereafter. Branislav Nedimović of the Democratic Party of Serbia served as mayor.
The Democratic Party won the elections in Inđija, Pećinci, and Sid, and in each case led a coalition government afterward. The Democratic Party and Serbian Radical Party won the same number of seats in both Stara Pazova and Ruma; the Democratic Party formed government in the first of these municipalities, and a new election (which was won by the Democratic Party) took place in the second.
The Serbian Radical Party won the election in Irig but did not form government. An independent mayor initially led a coalition government; in 2009, he was replaced by a member of the Democratic Party.

The local government was initially formed by the Democratic Party of Serbia and the Serbian Radical Party. Branislav Nedimović of the Democratic Party of Serbia was chosen as mayor.[146] Later in 2008, the Democratic Party of Serbia formed a new alliance with the Democratic Party, with Nedimović continuing in office.[147]
Nedimović resigned from the Democratic Party of Serbia in March 2010 and joined the breakaway Mitrovica European Region movement. He sought to join the Democratic Party later in the year, although he was not accepted by the party's city committee. After this, he formed his own group called Valuable Mitrovica. He continued to serve as mayor throughout the 2008–12 term.[148]

Srđan Nikolić of the Radicals remained in office as mayor during this time.[158]

In June 2008, local Serbian Radical Party leader Aleksandar Martinović and local Democratic Party of Serbia leader Dragan Božić announced a new coalition that would have held a one-seat majority in the local assembly.[160] The coalition never came to power; one Radical delegate mysteriously left the area, and the Democratic Party of Serbia later withdrew from the coalition. The Democratic Party's attempts to form a new coalition with the Democratic Party of Serbia and the Socialist Party of Serbia also failed.[161] Another provisional authority, also led by Borović, was appointed in August 2008 pending a repeat election in November.[162][163]
The repeat election was held on 9 November 2008:

Nišava District
[edit]Local elections were held for the City Assembly of Niš, the assemblies in all five of Niš's constituent municipalities, and the assemblies in all six of the Nišava District's other municipalities.
The results in the election for the city assembly were inconclusive. As at the republic level, and in Belgrade, a coalition was ultimately formed by the For a European Serbia alliance and the Socialist Party. Representatives of the Democratic Party also claimed the mayors offices in Meridana and Pantelej, while a member of the Socialist Party became mayor in a coalition government in Palilula. The Democratic Party of Serbia dominated the local coalition in Niška Banja, while the Radicals led the coalition government in Crveni Krst (and remained in power following the split in the party).
The Radicals also won the election in Aleksinac and were initially the dominant force in that municipality's governing coalition. After the party split, a new governing coalition came to power with a member of the Democratic Party of Serbia as mayor.
Local incumbents from New Serbia were re-elected in Doljevac and Ražanj, and an incumbent Socialist Party mayor was confirmed for another term in Gadžin Han. In Merošina, a Socialist Party representative served as mayor in a governing alliance with the Democratic Party and G17 Plus. United Peasant Party leader Milija Miletić was chosen as mayor in Svrljig and remained in office for the term that followed, excepting a three-month period in 2009–10.

The Democratic Party won plurality victories in Kraljevo and Vrnjačka Banja and, following periods of political instability in both communities, was ultimately able to form relatively stable coalition governments. The Serbian Radical Party won in Raška and held power for most of the term that followed.
The Sandžak Democratic Party won in the predominantly Bosniak city of Novi Pazar, and the Party of Democratic Action of Sandžak won in the municipality of Tutin.

Incumbent mayor Miloš Babić of New Serbia was confirmed for another term in office in May 2008. He died of a heart attack on 27 February 2009.[242] Deputy Mayor Vesna Nikolić Vukajlović of the Serbian Radical Party briefly served as the city's acting mayor until a new coalition government was formed in March 2009 by For a European Serbia, the Socialist Party of Serbia, and the Movement for Kraljevo; Ljubiša Simović of the Democratic Party became the city's new mayor.[243]
In April 2010, shifting local alliances brought Ljubiša Jovašević of the Movement for Kraljevo to the mayor's office under controversial circumstances.[244] Simović did not accept the new government's legitimacy, and both individuals claimed the mayoralty over the following months. This was resolved in Simović's favour by the end of July 2010, and he continued in office for the remainder of the term.[245][246][247]

Zlatibor District
[edit]Elections were held in the one city (Užice) and all nine municipalities of the Zlatibor District.
Coalitions including the Democratic Party (DS) came to power in Užice, Arilje, Bajina Bašta (where a member of the Socialist Party of Serbia became mayor), and Nova Varoš. The Serbian Radical Party initially formed government in Požega, but a new administration led by the DS came to power in 2009.
Incumbent mayor Milan Stamatović led the Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) to a majority victory in Čajetina. A coalition led by the DSS also came to power in Kosjerić, though it proved unstable; a new election was held in the municipality in 2009, and a coalition around the DS came to power there as well.
The Radical Party formed government in Priboj. After a party split later in the year, the local Radical Party leadership, including the mayor, joined the breakaway Serbian Progressive Party.
Prijepolje did not constitute a government within the required time, and a new election was held in December 2008. A coalition of the Sandžak Democratic Party, the Serbian Progressive Party, and the DS and its allies came to power; a member of the Progressives was chosen as mayor.
The Party of Democratic Action of Sandžak initially formed government in the predominantly Bosniak community of Sjenica. Later in the year, a new coalition led by the Sandžak Democratic Party came to power.
