VOTER REGISTRATION FOR SEPTEMBER ELECTIONS IN B-H

( Editorial: --> 8583 ) MOSTAR, June 3 (Hina) - The registration of voters for this year's September election in Bosnia-Herzegovina started on June 1 in 352 registration centres throughout the country, the director of the Mostar office of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), David Foley, told a press conference Wednesday. The registration will run until 27 June and in that period voters have to decide where they wish to vote. He recalled that for the 1996 and 1997 elections many voters decided to register to vote in places in which they currently resided. Foley said that for this year's elections voters can change their place of voting and register for the elections in places where they lived prior to the war, i.e. in 1991. He also said that some political parties from the Bosnian Serb entity had registered for this year's elections in all 10 cantons of the Croat-Muslim Federation of BH, which enables refugee Serbs to vote in places where they lived in 1991. Displaced Croats too can register to vote in places where they lived in 1991, to secure stronger political representation in places where they will be returning. (hina) jn bag/ha 031627 MET jun 98
