( Editorial: --> 2814 ) RIJEKA, Jan 7 (Hina) - The Assembly of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County was established in Rijeka Wednesday. Miljenko Doric of the Croatian People's Party (HNS) was elected president, while Dragutin Tomljenovic of the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) and Vidoje Vujic, a representative of ethnic or national communities or minorities, were voted vice-presidents of the Assembly. Milivoj Brozina of the Primorje-Gorski Kotar Alliance (PGS) was elected prefect, while Luka Denona of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and Teodor Antic of the Croatian Social Liberal Party (HSLS) were elected deputy prefects. A local election was repeated in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County in late November due to the fact that the county's executive authority had not been established after a regular election in April. Twenty-nine of the 40 councillors are from the coalition of the SDP, the HNS, the HSLS and the PGS, eight are from the coalition of the HDZ, the Croatian Christian Democratic Union (HKDU) and the Croatian Christian Democratic Party (HKDS), while three are from the Istrian Democratic Party (IDS).
