36.13% of voters cast ballots in four municipalities by 3 PM, highest turnout in Konjic, lowest in Kiseljak

(Patria) - The Central Election Commission (CEC) of Bosnia and Herzegovina announced new data on voter turnout in today's local elections held in Fojnica, Kiseljak, Kreševo, and Konjic. The CEC stated that citizen turnout by 3:00 PM was 36.13%.O

Due to specific circumstances, the Central Election Commission (CEC) of Bosnia and Herzegovina adopted special measures. Voters whose personal documents were destroyed in the floods were allowed to vote today by presenting a special ID card form (LK-O-I4), which they could obtain from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In addition, to ensure the transparency and regularity of the election process in Fojnica, all ballot papers bore a special stamp marked "postponed elections".

This additional measure was introduced by the CEC of BiH because the ballot papers were already with the polling station committees, but without any doubt that the election material had been compromised.

The only municipality where local elections have not yet been held is Jablanica, as conditions for their implementation are still not met due to the consequences of the floods.
