With rampant unemployment, endemic corruption and institutional dysfunctionality throughout Kosovo with people looking for the nearest one-way ticket out, Serb participation has more to do with Belgrade's lack of support and investment than any realization that Pristina is the wave of the future. My friends in Gracanica that I Skyped with yesyerday (KEK can't kill the internet) are equal-opportunity pessimists: Pristina officials are corrupt and self-serving; Belgrade officials are inept and self-serving. The decision to vote is taking matters into their own hands. If any of them decided to vote, and I won’t be surprised at high turnouts in some areas (SLS supporters were reported to have given 50 euros to every Serb that would vote for them), I'm afraid to say it has little if anything to do with them suddenly realizing they're "Kosovars".
On a positive note, Rada Trajkovic’s United Serbian List coalition seems to be looking for some practical middle ground between the f-you attitude of Belgrade and Mitrovica and the multi-culti BS from Pristina and EULEX.
