At today's session, the State Election Commission (SEC) rejected the objection of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) to the actions of the local commission in Kotor.

DPS can now appeal to the Constitutional Court after receiving the decision of the SEC.

On Saturday, the Municipal Election Commission (MEC) decided, by a majority of votes, not to accept the SEC's proposed decision on repeating voting at the Mirac polling station and the House of Culture in Prčanje.

After discussion, both solutions were rejected by a vote of 9:7 because the MEC determined that the irregularities were not of such a scale that the elections would be annulled and the elections would be repeated.

Local elections were held in Kotor on September 29, but due to objections regarding two polling stations, the final results have not yet been announced. Due to the stalemate in the MEC, as well as in the Constitutional Court, it could not be decided whether the elections at those polling stations would be repeated.

The President of the Municipality of Kotor, Vladimir Jokić, withdrew his appeal to the Constitutional Court last week.

According to the preliminary results of the elections in Kotor held on September 29, DPS and the PES-Democrats coalition won ten mandates each, the alliance "For the Future of Kotor", Grbljanska lista and Democratic Alternative three each, the European Alliance two, and the Croatian Citizen Initiative (HGI) and Kotor movement for mandate.
