Embassy in Belgrade for the presidential election, an excess of
ballots was found after the end of the voting.
More ballots were found in the polling box than the registered
number of voters who voted at this place.
The Croatian National Electoral Commission was notified of this
immediately and the further procedure of checking ballots
discontinued in line with the procedure and rules for such a
situation. A decision should be made whether the voting will have to
be repeated at this polling station.
On Monday 570 voters cast ballots at this place.
Polling stations opened in the Croatian embassy and consulates in
Yugoslavia (Serbia/Montenegro) closed at 07.00 pm.
The polling station in Kotor (Montenegro) reported about 300
voters, while the returns from Subotica said 200 voters went to the
polls in that northern town.
Preliminary results show that the turnout of Croatian citizens in
Yugoslavia was smaller this time compared to the turnout registered
at the recent parliamentary polls.
