Most of these political entities belong to communities.

The highest result among them was recorded by the Turkish party Kosova Demokratik Turk Partisi – KDTP, which received 5,709 votes, or 0.70 percent of the total number.

On the other hand, the weakest performance in these elections was by independent candidate Esmir Kasi. According to the results certified by the CEC on Wednesday, he secured 0.03 percent of the vote, or 268 votes.

Second from last in terms of results was KNRP, with 0.04 percent of the vote, meaning it received the support of only 355 citizens of Kosovo.

A total of 21 political entities competed in the October 7 elections. The threshold for entering the Assembly was 5 percent of the total vote, and only five political entities surpassed this level – the Serb List, the Alliance, the LDK, the PDK and the Vetëvendosje Movement.

However, the parliament will also include 11 MPs from entities that did not pass the threshold and remained below 1 percent of the total vote. They secure seats in the Assembly thanks to the constitutional “guarantees” that the Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo grants to communities. According to it, 10 seats in parliament belong “in any case” to representatives of the Serb community, while another 10 go to representatives of the country’s other ethnic communities.
