"We are all clear that in the past few months we had a lot of challenges and problems. I expect that the new mayor will have much more success in the implementation of the projects and objectives that will ensure a better life for our citizens," said Slobodan Petrovic, leader of the Independent Liberal Party.

In the extraordinary elections for the Mayor of Gracanica, Independent Liberal Party supported Vladeta Kostic from CI Srpska.

President of the Provincial Board of Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) Zvonko Stevic said that "the future mayor should be at the service of interest of citizens." "Besides all the problems that we encounter the unemployment of the youth is one of the substantive. One of the priorities is to provide new jobs but also proposing and initiating projects, including the joint projects with our Albanian neighbours, "said Stevic.
