Overview
- Preliminary results show Vetevendosje near 50% of the vote, ahead of the Democratic Party of Kosovo at about 21% and the Democratic League of Kosovo near 14%, with turnout around 44%.
- It is not yet clear whether Vetevendosje reached the 61 seats needed to govern alone in the 120‑seat assembly.
- Kosovo’s election law reserves 20 seats for Serb and other minority representatives, a factor that will shape the final seat arithmetic.
- Kurti says a new parliament and cabinet will be formed as soon as possible and urges opposition support to ratify EU and World Bank loan deals that require a two‑thirds majority.
- The snap vote followed months of deadlock after the Feb. 9 election, with an unapproved 2026 budget and a presidential vote due in the spring raising urgency for swift government formation.
