Milorad Dodik and SNSD started their pre-election campaign for the Local Elections, to be held in BiH on October 2nd, tonight in Srebrenica, Patria's reporter informs.

Dodik told the residents of Srebrenica that the RS Government will help Srebrenica strengthen its local economy if candidate Mladen Grujučić wins the elections on October 2nd, but if Ćamil Duraković wins again, the residents of Srebrenica will, according to Dodik, wait another four years for assistance.

He called on Bosniaks from Srebrenica to disown Sarajevo and turn to the authorities in RS, and to vote for the Serbian candidate Grujičić in the upcoming elections, not for Duraković.

Dodik added that Serbs will not fight for their rights with weapons, but with votes and referendums.

Supporters are carrying flags with the images of Milorad Dodik and Russian President Vladimir Putin, as well as banners with the inscription "We want freedom for Serbs", Patria reports.
