		Serbian presidential elections are next on September 29, followed by a general vote in Bosnia-Herzegovina on October 5.

		Brazenly telling their ignorant readers that fl is white, up is down and short is long, Western reporters gloated over the demise of the ruling VMRO and cheered the ascendant stooges of the Empire: Ali Ahmeti’s KLA, and the pliant Macedonian Socialists.

		It was referring to the second round of presidential elections in Serbia on October 13 and of the legislative elections in Montenegro on October 20.

	MILOSEVIC’S COMING ELECTION THEFT by Srdja Trifkovic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		In 1997 Milosevic’s candidate Milan Milutinovic cheated the nationalist Vojislav Seselj—then in opposition to Milosevic—out of a victory in the Serbian Presidential elections.
		These are not the stakes you have in parliamentary elections in Great Britain where the prime minister, if he loses the elections, becomes the leader of Her Majesty’s opposition—with the same salary.
		The techniques vary, but on Milosevic’s past form at the crudest level they will entail the dropping of bundles of illegitimate ballots into the boxes, and the tampering of those boxes during their transportation from individual polling stations to municipal counting centers.

	Reverse ethnic cleansing: a post-war visit to Serbia and Kosovo
		With fresh elections problematic, not least because no-one could predict with confidence that any fall in Socialist support might not benefit the radical anti-Western Serbian Radical Party led by Vojislav Seselj rather than pro-Western politicians, it may well be that Western leaders would prefer an extra-constitutional route to removing their bogeyman from power in Belgrade.
		In the case of the Serbian Democratic Party this remoteness from the public has been compounded by the fact that the party’s leader, Zoran Djindjic, left the country during the NATO bombardment and is widely regarded as a traitor.
		However the streets in the Serbian part of town are clean (which may have given the impression that it escaped damage) unlike the Albanian area where rubbish in the form of clothes, rotting food and animal carcases lines the streets.

	Weariness and apathy derail Serbian presidential poll - smh.com.au
		Serbs are weighing the consequences of an election failure after absent voters wrecked the presidential elections, in a dismal triumph of indifference over the spirit of civil revolt that ousted Slobodan Milosevic two years ago.
		Weary of political infighting, disillusioned with the fruits of democracy so far and unsure of which reformist faction to support, more than half the Serbian electorate of 6.5 million did not vote in Sunday's presidential election, rendering the result invalid.
		The term of the current Serbian President, Milan Milutinovic, expires at the end of the year, when he is widely expected to surrender to join his former patron Milosevic at the United Nations war crimes court, which has indicted him over atrocities committed in Kosovo.
