RIK adopts final election results as member alleges repeat-vote irregularities in Novi Pazar

What happened

At the same session in which RIK adopted the final parliamentary election results, commission member Ivan Sebek publicly cited irregularities and anomalies in repeat voting, particularly in Novi Pazar, and called for prosecutors and police to examine possible vote buying. Reporting said the disputed repeat-vote shift appears to have changed one seat from the Students' List to Usame Zukorlic's list.

Why it matters

The election count is now formally certified, but the public allegation of irregularities leaves room for legal complaints, prosecutorial action, and renewed contestation over the distribution of mandates. Because the allegation concerns a seat transfer between lists, even a one-seat dispute can shape coalition arithmetic, legitimacy claims, and the next procedural steps in constituting parliament.
