The Office of the High Representative (OHR) of the international community in Bosnia and Herzegovina expressed support for the decision of the Central Election Commission (CEC) to order a recount of the ballots for the president of BiH’s Republika Srpska (RS) entity.
The CEC said it ordered the recount due to “irregularities and mathematical illogicalities”.

The High Representative is the international official overseeing the civilian implementation of the 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement in the country.
According to the current election results, the leader of the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats (SNSD), Milorad Dodik, won the election for RS President. However, opposition parties in the entity are demanding a recount, arguing that their candidate, Jelena Trivic, from the Party of Democratic Process, is the winner.
The election fraud allegations prompted thousands of citizens to protest in Banjaluka, the administrative centre of the RS, last week.
