The president of the polling board in Gornji Kotorac, municipality of East Ilidza, Dajana Skrba, said that an alleged attempt at election fraud was prevented Sunday morning at this polling station, of which they immediately informed the police.

“We discovered a man attempting to bring out an empty ballot from the polling station, which we reported to the on-duty police officer who took his ID and informed Istocno Sarajevo police Station of the incident,” Skrba said.

Deputy Chief of Police in Istocno Sarajevo Igor Kusic confirmed they received the report and that in cooperation with the Prosecutor's Office, they are working on the said case.

The Pod Lupom Coalition in charge of observing the election process said Sunday Morning that 98 percent of of the total of 2600 observers had no problem getting to polling stations except for 45 polling stations – most of which were in Doboj, northern Bosnia, where observers were not allowed to enter polling stations.

The Coalition said they are working on solving this issue with local authorities so that they can enter the stations.

A similar situation happened in Banja Luka, the administrative centre of the Serb-dominated Republika Srpska (RS) entity but this situation was resolved on time.

The Coalition for Free and Fair Elections “Pod Lupom” engaged 2,600 civic, non-partisan observers for the 2020 Local Elections, together with 85 civil society organizations and informal groups. Data from the field are received via Coalition's call centre, while reporting is done in real-time.
