Dragan Djilas expects the Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) to support Boris Tadic in the second round of elections. Djilas, a leading Democratic Party (DS) official, told B92's Poligraf last night that he felt that voters allied to Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica’s party would support the incumbent president on February 3.

He also denied that the DS’s support for the energy agreement with Russia was part of any election deal with Kostunica over his eventual support for Tadic in the second round.
