because small parties considering themselves patriotic would not pass the election threshold, which would result in a dispersion of votes.

Speaking at an election rally, Prtenjaca called for putting an end
to the betrayal of national interests, persecution of soldiers,
imprisonment of generals, and the vilification of patriots.
The HDZ will not allow discrimination against Bosnian Croats who
settled in Croatia or Croats who remained in Bosnia-Herzegovina,
Prtenjaca said, calling on voters to vote for the HDZ, which he said
would take Croatia forward and accomplish its second objective,
after independence - membership in the EU.
