A presidential election was held to elect candidates to a seven-member republic presidium. Six candidates were elected to represent Bosnia's nations (two each by Bosnian Muslims, Bosnian Serbs, and Bosnian Croats), and a seventh candidate was elected to represent all "others". All of the presidential seats were won by parties structured around national lines: the Party of Democratic Action (SDA) won the two Muslim seats, the Serb Democratic Party (SDS) won the two Serb seats, the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) won the two Croat seats, and the "other" seat was won by SDA member Ejup Ganić, who ran as a "Yugoslav". Although Fikret Abdić received more votes than any other candidate, he agreed to stand aside and permit fellow SDA member Alija Izetbegović to become president of the presidium.Viktor Meier, Yugoslavia: A History of its Demise, Trans. Sabrina Ramet, (London and New York: Routledge, 1999), p. 193. The Party of Democratic Action also emerged as the largest party in the election for the Assembly of the Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with 43 of the 130 seats in the Chamber of Citizens and 43 of the 110 seats in the Chamber of Municipalities. Voter turnout was 74.4% for the presidential election, 81.6% for the Chamber of Municipalities election and 77.5% for the Chamber of Citizens election. However, the election was marred by irregularities; in Brčko, Doboj, Nevesinje and Sarajevo there were more votes than registered voters (13,316 registered voters in Brčko but 49,055 votes, 4,771 voters in the Old City of Sarajevo but 28,974 votes).Nohlen & Stöver, p329 Results Presidency (seven members) Bosniaks (two elected) Fikret Abdić Party of Democratic Action 1045539 Alija Izetbegović Party of Democratic Action 879266 Nijaz Duraković League of Communists 558263 Džemal Sokolović Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 183171 Nazif Gljiva League of Socialist Youth – Democratic Alliance 133587 Fejsal Hrustanović League of Communists 122002 Dževad Haznadar Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 120560 Bahrudin Bijedić Independent 104335 Adil Zulfikarpašić Muslim Bosniak Organisation 51225 y Serbs (two elected) Biljana Plavšić Serb Democratic Party 573812 Nikola Koljević Serb Democratic Party 556218 Nenad Kecmanović Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 500783 Mirko Pejanović League of Communists 335392 Nikola Stojanović League of Communists 238377 Đorđe Latinović League of Socialist Youth – Democratic Alliance 223044 Ranko Zrilić Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 161910 y Croats (two elected) Stjepan Kljuić Croatian Democratic Union 473002 Franjo Boras Croatian Democratic Union 416629 Ivo Komšić League of Communists 353707 Zoran Perković League of Communists 290333 Franjo Bošković Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 250099 Tadej Mateljan Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 213516 Martin Raguž League of Socialist Youth – Democratic Alliance 130428 y Others (one elected) Ejup Ganić Party of Democratic Action 709691 Ivan Čerešnješ Serb Democratic Party 362681 Josip Pejaković Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 317978 Zlatko Lagumdžija League of Communists 194723 Azemina Vuković League of Socialist Youth – Democratic Alliance 61542 2204947 135011 3144353 Nohlen & Stöver Chamber of Citizens File:SR Bosnia and Herzegovina Chamber of Citizens 1990.svg Party of Democratic Action 711075 43 Serb Democratic Party 590431 34 Croatian Democratic Union 362855 21 League of Communists 278027 15 Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 201018 12 SSO–DSS–DSZ 39982 2 Democratic Socialist Alliance 31623 1 Muslim Bosniak Organisation 25975 2 Other parties 17522 0 80219 3018206 Nohlen & Stöver Chamber of Municipalities File:SR Bosnia and Herzegovina Chamber of Municipalities 1990.svg Party of Democratic Action 788616 43 Serb Democratic Party 624951 38 Croatian Democratic Union 383279 23 League of Communists 378198 4 Union of Reform Forces of Yugoslavia 281436 1 Serbian Renewal Movement 4217 1 Other parties 96650 0 83623 0 3235360 Nohlen & Stöver References Category:1990 elections in Yugoslavia Category:1990 in Bosnia and Herzegovina Category:Elections in Bosnia and Herzegovina Category:November 1990 in Europe Category:Election and referendum articles with incomplete results
