Stefan Janjić, lawyer for the United Kosjerić list, has filed a complaint with the Higher Court in Užice against the decision of the Kosjerić municipal election commission, which rejected the opposition’s objection seeking annulment of the election at polling station number 25. Janjić claims there was a serious violation of electoral law because a person voted at the wrong polling station, which is sufficient grounds to annul the vote. He expects the complaint to be accepted and the elections to be repeated. The elections in Kosjerić have been described as unfair and unfree, with the atmosphere on election day likened to a state of siege. Janjić emphasized that citizens are constantly taking to the streets in their fight for rights, but without violence, and that the struggle will continue until the end.
Political Perspectives:
Left: Left-leaning sources emphasize the alleged electoral fraud and serious violations of voting rights in Kosjerić, highlighting the opposition’s fight for democratic integrity and the need for election annulment and repetition. They focus on the oppressive atmosphere during the elections and the peaceful civic activism in response.
Center: Centrist sources report the facts of the complaint and the legal process without strong bias, noting the claims of voting irregularities and the ongoing judicial review. They present the situation as a legal dispute over election procedures with potential implications for local governance.
Right: Right-leaning sources may downplay the opposition’s claims or emphasize the legitimacy of the election results, focusing on the official election commission’s decisions and the stability of the electoral process. They might portray the opposition’s actions as political maneuvering or unrest without substantial grounds.
