Meanwhile, EU Special Representative in Kosovo Samuel Zbogar has announced the possibility that Kosovo’s municipal elections might be repeated at three polling stations in northern Kosovska Mitrovica, where he said vandals destroyed the electoral materials. Zbogar said that the Sunday vote was successful even in the Serb-majority municipalities in northern Kosovo, where elections were held for the first time since Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence in 2008. Zbogar told Radio-Television Slovenia that the voter turnout in the local elections in northern Kosovo was good. Zbogar said he expects "no appreciable deterioration in the security situation in Kosovo in the period ahead of the second round of voting on December 1," adding, however, that escalation of tensions is possible and increased presence of EULEX and KFOR is therefore necessary.
