2004 Vojvodina provincial election

There are 120 MPs in Vojvodina's Parliament. One half (60 MPs) is elected based on a proportional representation one-round system, according to which Vojvodina is one electoral unit. Voters choose between several Parties, Coalitions or Citizen Groups. The other 60 MPs are elected based on majority two-round system, according to which Vojvodina is divided into 60 electoral units in a way that every county gives at least one MP. Some larger electoral units, like the cities of Novi Sad, Subotica, Zrenjanin etc., give more (from 2 up to 7). In this case, voters choose between more candidates. A candidate can win in first round if he/she gets more than 50%+1 votes of those who voted. If none gets enough votes, the two strongest candidates go to the second round, in which the one with more votes wins.

The election threshold for Parties, Coalitions and Citizen's Groups is 5%, except for Parties of minority groups (Hungarians, Croats, etc.), for whom the threshold is smaller, but not smaller than the number of votes necessary to get one MP. According to the law, on all lists of Parties, Coalitions and Citizen's Groups at least 30% of the proposed MPs must be women.

A governing coalition was formed comprising the Democratic Party, Together for Vojvodina, Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians, and Strength of Serbia Movement, which together hold 66 seats in the Assembly - a majority of 12.

Democratic Party Vice-President Bojan Pajtić was elected President of the Executive Council and Bojan Kostreš from the League of Vojvodina Social Democrats was elected President of the Assembly.[1]
