• Election results: turnout of 42% a record low, three-member presidency formed

  With more than 90% of ballots counted, Bosniak candidate Bećirović has 38.12% (Izetbegović 33.98%), Croat candidate Filipović (HDZ BiH) 46.55% and Serb candidate Cvijanović (SNSD) 55.37%. Turnout was about 42%, a record low and about 8 points below 2022. Dodik's SNSD kept its lead in Republika Srpska and the established nationalist forces remain in power, a negative for EU accession prospects.
