According to a statement Silajdzic's SBiH issued on Sunday evening,
Silajdzic's victory of this election was quite certain, and SBiH
assessed that claims from the SDA were frivolous given that they
were based on the returns from 30 percent of votes.
According to the SBiH, Silajdzic had a big edge over Tihic in the
most populated areas such as the Sarajevo and Tuzla regions.
The election for the Bosniak (Muslim) member of the Presidency has
thus become the most interesting part of the general elections,
held on Saturday.
