The party will be represented in the Federation parliament, as well
as in the assemblies of Posavina, Herzegovina-Neretva and Livno
cantons. The HSS previously had deputies only in the Livno canton
assembly.
Simic confirmed that the party was willing to continue operating
within a coalition similar to the one that had been in power over the
past two years.
Commenting on the low turnout, Simic said that it was a "horrible
message to all politicians and parties" as to what the electorate
through of them and their work.
