Nation building, the 3rd time was NOT the charm> Serbian elections fail for third time in a year, in political crisis DUSAN STOJANOVIC, Associated Press Writer (11-16) 14:09 PST BELGRADE, Serbia-Montenegro (AP) -- Serbians failed for the third time in a year Sunday to elect a president because of low voter turnout, triggering a political crisis in the Balkan republic. An ultranationalist with close ties to Slobodan Milosevic led the ballot, underlining Serbians' discontent with the pro-Western government that ousted the dictator in 2000 and the republic's drift back to Milosevic's nationalism, which triggered the Balkan wars in the 1990s. About 39 percent of registered voters cast ballots, exit polls showed, less than the 50 percent needed to validate the vote, said the independent Center for Free Elections and Democracy. Tomislav Nikolic was ahead with 46.5 percent of vote, the unofficial results showed. Dragoljub Micunovic, a pro-democracy candidate who led pre-election polls, trailed with only 35 percent. Four other candidates shared the rest of the vote. Official results were expected Monday, but the center's results have proved reliable in the past. The failed election left Serbia in a power vacuum. Parliament was dissolved last week because the pro-Western government lost parliamentary support, leaving no one to call a presidential new vote. New general elections were set for Dec. 28. Serbia's Vice Prime Minister Zarko Korac described the election results as a "tragedy for Serbia." "We are entering a dangerous, dramatic, phase of our future," Korac said. sfgate.com
